[QUOTE="Katpau, post: 1830090, member: 9933"] If you haven't already, I would give all your calves a nasal respiratory vaccine such as Inforce 3. I would check the temperatures on all of them while I had them in the chute, and only treat those with a high temperature. This should help to prevent most respiratory viruses from going through the entire herd. We were having some issues with light weight calves a number of years ago, and that advice from our Vet seemed to stop the problem almost immediately. We had been treating a few calves a day, and after administering the nasal vaccine, we only had to treat one or two more and those occurred within the next few days. We had not been giving any vaccines until weaning, but now we vaccinate everything at about 3-4 months with at least an 8 way Clostridial vaccine plus a nasal vaccine and a BVD vaccine for respiratory issues. We follow the rules regarding boosters for the products chosen. The nasal vaccines are modified live and don't require a booster. [/QUOTE]
