[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 91918, member: 968"] You give the dosage listed on the bottle for vaccines no matter what size the animal is. If you're calves are nusing cows, they should not receive any VACCINES until they are at least 3 months old, because the antibodies from the cows colostrum will interfere with the vaccine. IF you are having a major health problem, the Pfizer rep said you can vaccinate before 2 weeks old - but I would check with the pharmaceutical company of the vaccine you are using. We vaccinate after 3 months of age & prior to weaning and also deworm at the same times. Wormers are given based on weight. There is no need to deworm a calf until 1-2 montbs after grazing. We eartag our calves at birth using a full size tag (ex-large size). [/QUOTE]
