[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1603452, member: 27490"] Thanks. I fit the same circumstances. To my knowledge, there have been no confirmed cases in Robertson County. There have been cases in Mason County and Rowan County. Not long ago, Rollinhills had a cow die with anaplasmosis which is a few counties away. I feel the same way you do - unless I have a case or I hear of a case nearby, I don't feel the need to vaccinate or feed CTC. I do see my cattle daily. I would know if one is sick. I keep LA 300 available which is Oxytetracycline, one of the tetracyclines. For a seedstock producer like myself, it is a significant problem if a vaccine only protects against clinical disease and leaves the animal as a carrier. It is difficult if not unethical to sell seedstock that is a carrier of Anaplasma marginale, even if the animal is protected from clinical disease. There does not seem to be any solution to that problem. [/QUOTE]
