Are cattle allergic to anything such as accumulating dust on feed or anything like that? Are there any health issues that are related to cattle being allergic to anything? Thank you!

Cattle can have allergies, but usually it's the irritation of the dry dust, chafy?, feed that just causes an irritation.

I just recently gave a calf a shot of la200 and he fell over and died.I have been told that some cattle are allergic to certain vaccinations but it seems to be rare.

That sounds odd, did you give it in the vein? I know pennicillin IV can cause them to drop over dead, and LA200 is an IM or SQ med, I have never seen its affects IV, and am not sure, but it sounds really odd, I had a calf with respiratory issues whom I treated with Nuflor and Banamine have a reaction to the Banamine where he stumbled around drunk for about 45 min. Thought he would die, but he made it and my vet told me he had seen it before and it was a rare side affect of Banamine in cattle.
