Cobalt overdose?

[Bizzielizzie]

Can lambs be over supplemented with Cobalt??

If I recently gave lambs Smartshot injection, would it be safe to use white wormer since it also supplies cobalt? If not, the same answer should apply to a mineral drenching at weaning?

Thank you

The very small amount in the wormer will make no difference.

It'll be absolutely fine.

I don't think you can OD cobalt, but the levels in the wormers are so low there wouldn't be any risk

Thank you!
