Just a reminder for livestock owners...
New "feed through medication" controls are going into effect soon. Feed through meds are typically defined as antibiotics that are fed (in medicated feeds) OR mixed in water. The only ones not being regulated will be a very short list. Any that are considered to be imperative to human health will no longer be available without a "feed directive prescription".. While corid is not supposed to be affected, albon, sulmet etc , as well as the tetracyclines (duramycin etc)will no longer be over the counter. This is federal, not by state.
