A dewormer block for cattle ?

I tried it once. My cattle refused to eat it. I use a pour on now that I put on when I turn them loose in the pasture in the spring.
 
It?d probably only work if they all ate the required amount within a certain time period. Chances are 2 would like it and the rest wouldn?t. Pour on is the best
 
As for dewormer I am somewhat stange but works very well is I buy garlic powder and put it in the feedmill, but I have cattle in feedlots and the beef cows get grain so it is easy to administer. They aren't found of the taste but it works well.
 
Pour-on so all of them get the correct dose. With the block some of them will get a partial dose, some will get none, and some will get too much.
 
Pour-ons have proven to be fairly poor at internal parasite control. Better than nothing, but sometimes not by much. With the blocks, it's tough to get all of them to eat the proper amount. The pellets work well if you don't have too many animals. With too many animals, the smaller or more timid ones don't usually get enough. Injectable wormers are far and away the best method to control internal parasites.
 
Just read an article in the progressive cattleman (they?ve since changed their name to be more pc 😡) anyway it says injectable and Pour on ate the worst at controlling parasites . As far as the wormer id Rather eat an animal that wasn?t diseased and worm ridden when i ate it the beef has a 30 day period where you can?t slaughter it until the withdrawal period is up
 
Are you sure you even need it? I'd send out a fecal sample before I treat for something I'm not even sure is a problem. I never worm brood cows. Haven't for decades. Calves get a pour on after weaning when their resistance is weak but cows, never.
