Never given tetanus shots to banded calves -- so far so good.

Tetanus may not be a problem everywhere, but it is highly recommended in Texas.

we band at birth, no tetanus. if we miss one or later decide that one of the bull calves isn't growing to its potential, we'll band and give a tetanus.

Commercial vs Registered, but I consider the Tetanus thing more of a 'better safe than sorry' thing.
