[QUOTE="kansasmale, post: 572927, member: 8674"] I searched this forum for this subject, and couldnt find anything. My apologies if it has already been covered. Last fall put 125 head of 400 weight calves in a smaller feedlot and lost 26 of them. Threw every possible antibiotic at them, vaccinations, etc, nothing seemed to help. Last week, was at the feed store picking up mineral and got pulled aside by the manager, and introduced to a shering-plough salesman. Turns out one of the vaccines used on my cattle was jencine 4, and we were injecting a virulent form of BVD into them. That sure explains a lot. Feedlot owner has been contacted by the company vet going over records, etc. I understand compensation is coming, but no idea what all that covers. My questions are: Are any of you going through this? I would like to hear your experiences. Have any of you ever gone through something like this before? I have never been through anything like this. Im not trying to rip off the company, but along with the death loss, the medicine bill was extremely high trying to save them, not to mention lost performance, feed, etc. Shering-Plough isnt denying that there was a problem with the vaccine, and there has been a recall on the product. Just wondering how all this will play out, and my best way to respond to it. [/QUOTE]
