A 3 year old cow died Monday...she looked rough--condition score 4.<br>See, a dead cow is a rare event on this farm, 4 in 8 years<br>(breeding herd size averages about 90--right now about 100).<p>Since it is a rare event I took her to the lab...full of cancer. They<br>pulled blood from her heart and ran leukosis test came<br>up positive. She was not tested coming in...came from<br>reputable herd...I do test recip cows.<p>Opinions, do I test her yearling daughter?<br>do I test the whole herd?<br>do I test only those animals that she was exposed to?<p>Do I sell them all and quit?<p>Vet said, forget it, the test won't mean anything--what's your opinion of my vet?<p>
