[QUOTE="Rusty2025, post: 55972, member: 919"] Johnes' disease? I raise Brahman cattle and have a problem that seems to be unfamiliar in this part of the country. A few years ago, my herd bull started losing weight - a lot of weight...also, his hoofs grew quite long, and even after having them trimmed, they grew back, almost immediately. After pouring gobs of feed into him, only to have it come out the other other end, it was finally decided to put him down...so - here it is 2 or 3 years later, and I have a young cow that is doing the same thing -- no matter how much we feed her, she keeps losing weight. I have read this board and seen nothing that approaches this problem. Can anyone shed some light? (I might add, this cow is an off-spring of the deceased bull). I have another cow that is out of him but she seems to be doing quite well. Both of these young cows have calves, different strain of bull. Am I to expect the same thing to happen agan? Hope someone can give some advice.. [/QUOTE]
