Two Rumbul Cattle Bullets should be given to each animal two/three days before the expected period of risk, e.g. before transfer from indoors to grass in the spring. If necessary, dosage should be repeated after four weeks.

Only to be given to cattle of at least 300 kg bodyweight.

One Rumbul Sheep/Calf Bullet should be given to each animal two days before the expected period of risk, e.g. after lambing or transfer to new grazing. If necessary, dosage should be repeated after three weeks.

Only to be given to sheep of at least 30 kg bodyweight.

Two Rumbul Sheep /Calves Bullets should be given to each animal. One treatment should prevent a serious reduction in blood magnesium concentration for at least three weeks; thereafter, dosage should be repeated if the calf is still receiving a predominantly milk diet.

Only to be given to calves of at least 50 kg bodyweight.

Administer orally by using the specially designed bulleting gun.

Load the gun by inserting the bullet into the open end. Open the animal's mouth and the gun should then be introduced carefully and gently, until the bullet is in the region of the back of the tongue. Severe pressure on the tongue should be avoided.

Depression of the plunger (fig 3) will deliver the bullet on to the rear part of the tongue, thereby initiating a swallowing action. The gun should then be carefully withdrawn from the mouth (fig 4).

For cattle and calves only - a second bullet should then be administered following the same procedure.

Observe each animal for a short time after dosing to ensure the bullet(s) has (have) been swallowed.
