[QUOTE="kdhansen, post: 1099968, member: 8158"] I have been looking into a mixed killed / live product for the cows so I didn't have to worry about if I missed one with a round and ends up aborting if I gave her an MLV down the road. The only other way to be completely safe with the MLV would be to do them at pre breeding which you would have to do the first year anyway.[/quote] I vaccinate pre-breeding, used to use a MLV until I had purchased a couple bred cows and was "chicken" to use the MLV on the weaning calves, so ALL ended up on the killed vaccine for the last 5 years. Really would like to get all back on MLV, so figured I could start when weaning this season, then catch the cows up pre-breeding next season...just really curious why it is noted to not vaccinate calves that are nursing cows that hadn't been MLV vaccinated, and why it would affect the cow that is being nursed (figured it must have something to do to how the calves shed the virus, or they assume all cow w/calves are only with cows w/calves that have been all vaccinated the same, at the same time?) Wasn't sure either if it was a CYA note on the vaccine or substantial evidence. [/QUOTE]
