I can't register the 4 calves until I get the paper work back on their mothers SPEEDY IYAK is NOT.

Also, they start eating more hay and nursing less, so there is some tapering off. The mares would turn the foals away after a certain point.

as to why so much iodine I am a firm believer in fully saturating the spot before stopping to make SURE the wound/sore spot is fully coated.

they actually started "testing" out grass/hay/treat at about a week old and were actively eating both by 3 or 4 weeks plus nursing. And honestly no longer need the milk.

Do the DNA samples have to wait?

Good idea in future to put some iodine/water solution in a syringe and squirt it into any pockets formerly full of pus. Flushes out the bacteria.

LOL I actually wrote on the pics of Maiah that the red was iodine and NOT blood. SO IYAK people wouldn't be super concerned and call ASPCA on me

All you would have to do is present before and after pictures. World of difference now.

yes because I do NOT have the id numbers assigned by IYAK for their mothers and I need that number to register the calves. But then I don't have to ear tag them so soon either and can hold on to the 230.00 it's going to cost the register the 4. 65.oo each.
