    Anyone use this? How do you find it? Have used on lame ewes and lambs but it does noting to help them, end up having to catch them again and use a more reliable product. Anyone have any positive experiences or is it just me that find it negative?

    I put it on the ram to treat a bit of a scald and ended up having to catch and treat him with formalin a week later when it was worse he was getting instead of better.

    Foot master indeed... You would do more damage to the bacteria if you threw the can at them.

    Alamycin spray is effective I find.

    For any of those products to have any chance of working (apart from formalin), it needs to be done on concrete and left to dry in, you're only wastin time if you're putting them straight back on grass immediately after

    If i sprayed a sheep in the field, I'd hold her sitting up with her foot off the ground for five minutes, dont know about foot master but a you'd see the alamycn on the grass if you let it off immediately,
