Have you checked for lice?? Ringworm?

i was going to use pornon this weekend. Its for lice, bugs, ect.

Where are the spots at. I have had calves rub a lot in certain years and the would be completely bald in some places. IDK if thats your case just whats happened to me. Ivomec should help though.

Do the pour on wormer. We use cydectin but as long as what you use is for external parasites it will be fine. Mane and Tail has a medicated shampoo you can also use to wash with. Get it from tractor supply

We always pour lyceen on backs once a month and that seems to help havent had problems this year you can pick it up at tractor supply or farm and fleet

A red baldy non show heifer of mine is losing a lot of hair. On one side of her back and ribs she has a basket ball sized chunk of hair missing. Sounds simialar to whats happening to you. Fairly soon I plan to put pour on Ivomec. Could this be caused by lice?

You've probably burned their hides pretty badly then.
