Tell me about Bo-Se

So I'm convince that I need to start copper bolusing and using Bo-Se, but I need to know about administering the Bo-Se.

How much should I administer to a full grown LaMancha? Can I give it while she is pregnant, or no? Where should the injection be given?

What about kids? When should they start getting it?

The dose is 1cc per 40 lbs. We usually give Bo-Se to pregnant does three weeks before their due date and then the babies get a 1/4 to 1/2cc at birth. We always start with 1/4cc and only give more if we think they need it.

It is used mainly in selenium deficient areas.
