I have a really bad case of ringworm on one of my heifers. She has A TON of hair so treating it has been difficult because its hard to spot new areas and its hard to keep it clean of the scabs after brushing her. whats the best thing that you know of? is there any last resort things that we can do?
THANK YOU!!!!

| FLUID FILM WORKS REALLY WELL. SCRATCH THE RING WORM UNTIL IT ALMOST BLEEDS THEN SPRAY WITH FLUID FILM. FLUID FILM IS A SPRAY LUB LIKE WD 40 THAT CAN BE FOUND AT MOST PART STORES.

| I have a black maine heifer with what I think is the same thing you got. She has dry scaly skin that pulls off, but leaves a raw spot. I is really nasty, and I feel sorry for her. Will normal worming kill ringworm. How long does it take the hair to come back. Our show is in less than a month, should I just count out being able to show her? It is worst on her belly and legs. Please let me know if this sounds like ringworm.

| I have had family members who are on the show circuit use a yeast infection treatment of some sort like vagisil or monistat. It does sound weird, but it does work. Last edited on Sun Dec 31st, 2006 05:07 am by jrj

| Any fungus treatment just like for people will work. To grow hair back use knox gelatin, a pack a day in feed. To prevent, use a mixture of vinegar (cup) soap and water poared down back at least once a day. Especially if you have cats around.

| Does the knox gelatin work for the hair even if they didn't have ring worm, and do you mix it with water and then in the feed, or mix it with the feed in the powder form? How long do you need to feed it to see results?

| Put in feed in powder form. Feed daily or however much you feel you need. This really helps hair and hoof growth. good luck

| I can't answer exactly. We had a calf with this problem. She had hair back quickly within two weeks. This hair was not consistant with long hair however. We had just clipped her close. Even now, you can still see where the spots were because of the thickness of surrounding hair. I think climate makes alot of difference. With the pour on of vinegar after each rinsing we have had no new outbreaks.

| well it seems like every year after the first show eveyone gets it we have had good luck using that monistat and something i tried last year was we had a steer that had ringworm really bad well i just put him in the chute and scrathced it till it started to bleed because the stuff on the outside is dead skin so if you dont get through it it take longer well i just sprayed blue coat on it and never treated him again getting through the skin and to the live stuff does the trick and makes it work a lot faster another thing is be careful because i have got ringworm from the cows before

This is a wonderful opinion. The things mentioned are unanimous and needs to be appreciated by everyone. The initiative taken for the concern is very serious and need an attention of every one. This is the concern which exists in the society and needs to be eliminated from the society as soon as possible. There is nothing called a free lunch is this world. If anything needed to be resolved then initiated need a support to be sorted out.
