As
calving season starts, we wanted to take this opportunity to update you on what
is happening at Oakley Veterinary Service.
Dr. Jacey is working full time and will do her best to cover all your
calving needs. Dr. Dave Rethorst will
also continue to come out to Oakley as much as he possibly can. Please do not hesitate to call and let us
know what you need.
Dr.
Dave is helping us with the VFD’s.
Please let us know when you are needing either a new Veterinary Feed Directive
or a renewal.
We
also wanted to let you know that although there has been and will be pricing
increases on our inventory items, our treatment charges will remain the same
during this calving season. One pricing
increase we would like you to be aware of is the rendering fee from DarPro (the
rendering company). They have increased
their pick-up charge to $50.00 for cattle over 30 months old; the pick-up
charge for a calf is $15.00.
Ivomec
Plus injectable is still on backorder and we do have the generic
ivermectin. Ivomec Pour On is going to
be in short supply, possibly for the entire year. We will do our best to keep a supply of 5
Liter Ivomec on hand. Micotil is on
backorder and we hope it will be available in March. Starting next week, we will have Ralgro
implants once again on our shelves.
