[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 730980, member: 968"] When you are "mixing" cattle from different sources, scrour guard is highly recommended. It is costly, but $20/calf?? sounds high. You have to give all "new" cows 2 doses (1st & booster), but after you have given your cows the booster, the following year, you just have to give 1 shot to the same set of cows. Anything new, needs the two shots prior to calving. Remember, any vaccines you give at the time of purchase, isn't going to give you very much protection. Vaccines don't work very well if the animal is STRESSED, and going thru a sale barn, trucked to a vet = is stress! So, I would revaccinate in 2-4 weeks - ask vet. [/QUOTE]
