Hi Everyone!

I am leaving tomorrow to compete for my states Beef Princess Competition and I have a sample question that I have not been able to find an accurate answer too, if someone could please help me out.

Here's what I'm thinking makes up some of your 9-

IV, IM, ORAL, SQ, NASAL, POOR ON, are injection techinques

or if you want sites only, here's 9 that I can think of putting medicine into.
blood stream, neck, nasal, oral, topical, pons, elbow pocket, teat, 'tent'

Well, it's more than you had when you started... (clapping)

Do a google search under Beef Quality Assurance and you should get a coordinator for your state. They will be able to tell you the 9 injection sites or lead you to someone who should know. Possibly someone that has went out and taught classes to certify people. Your vet may know, but I would start with the search first. Good luck.

Can you explain the technique you use to inject pour on  (lol)

Sorry, I just couldn't resist. Good answers though, that's everything I can think of.

Im not sure where all 9 injection sites would be, but im sure your local vet would have a pretty good idea.

don't forget IMM - intramammary

a good answer to that question would be: there is only one spot to give IM, and Sub-q skin injections is in the neck
