[QUOTE="Bonsman, post: 830131, member: 8504"] I am getting ready to move some cows/calves and heifers into a pasture I recently purchased. I was informed that the previous owner had two or three cows die about six months ago. He sold his herd shortly after their deaths. There has not been any cattle on the property since November. [b]They do not know why the cows died; but they suspect black leg[/b]. We have not had any rain, none, nada, not a drop since he sold his cattle. My cows have had all their shots; the spring calves have not had any shots. If his cows had black leg, does anybody know how if it will stay in the pastures? If so, does anybody know how long? I really need the grass; but I am now scared to move anything in the pasture until I figure out why his cows died and what I can do to protect my animals. Given we do not know exactly why the animals died, does anybody have any suggestions that would help me protect my animals before I move them to the new land? Should I wait on a good rain? I am at a loss and very concerned, any help is greatly appreciated. . [/QUOTE]
