[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1649939, member: 39695"] It just goes to show you never know what comes home with sale barn cows (and I should know better). I bought 20 bred cows last December; herd dispersales, had "all" their breeding shots at preg check time. I put them on a farm that didn't have easy access to a chute so they didn't get any more vaccines until spring turn out. I got 19 really nice calves and was excited to get these new cows bred to my bulls. Well preg check time came this fall and I had 12 opens out of those 20 new cows. After that horrible sick feeling passed my vet and I decided to blood test those new open cows. They came back positive for Neospora, Anaplasmosis, and Lepto. Some only had one ailment, two were positive for all three! My vet has devised a plan to get this mess all cleaned up, but it's still an extremely frustrating mess. [/QUOTE]
