[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1332373, member: 16453"] Do you have a botulism vaccine in the US? With our phosphorous deficient soils cattle can get a craving and will chew and suck on old bones and carcases and losses from botulism can be significant. We have a single dose vaccine, a toxoid I think that takes 3-4 wks for full protection but seems to give some degree of protection a lot sooner. An annual booster is required. I believe I lost a good young cow from botulism last year from grazing around where I had chicken litter dumped. I vaccinated and had no more problems. Ken [/QUOTE]
