[QUOTE="Banjo, post: 1556664, member: 17304"] I worry more about the blackleg than the tetanus. Never had a calf get tetanus that I'm aware of, but lost several to blackleg over the years. Its supposed to come from the ground they say, so i guess both are important if they are going to be in a lot with much bare ground, especially after banding. Blackleg seems to be more prevalant where a lot of tobacco is or has been grown in the past. Don't know if the soil organism is related to "Blackshank" in tobacco. I was told that the man who owned where i live now 40 years ago had several calves die in a short period of time once.....finally it was diagnosed as blackleg, then started to vaccinate for it. He also grew a lot of tobacco here. [/QUOTE]
