Ringworm, HELP!!!

[Finley Club Calves]

I have about 12 head of roping calvesthat have ringworm. :-\ They are penned next 2 my show calves and I dont have time 2 treat them every day. Any suggestions? ???

Let the roping calves go and let it run the coarse. The sun will kill it eventually, just have to watch the show calves and treat them. Use a blower and go over them with it and it will show spots you may not see. Then treat them asap. Maybe shave the show calves heads so the sun can get to them more also.

Move them lo. All seriousness the roping calves may have already rubbed on posts or fence contaminating the area. Plus there has probably been some contact through the fence. You may not be able to get around but treating them. I would definently move somebody til it is cleared up and try to disinfect to keep from spreading. It seems like once you have ringworm on your place its hard to get rid of.

Then why move then to affect another spot?

If they are lucky maybe the show calves dont have it yet
