[QUOTE="VAStocker, post: 263323, member: 4458"] Got 44 steers from a local stock yard and 26 of the 44 were running a fever (104.5-107.0) any where in that range. I expect to get a few fevers with each load but this was alot more than normal. The cattle did not spend more than 12 hours in the same pen and were bought in 3 seperate groups so they weren't pened together at the market for very long, and from the looks of thing like back tag #'s and ear tags the calves came from different farms for the most part. All were 400-500 lbs. and looked good other than the fever a few runny noses but that was it. I can't explain it. Maybe the gestation period for different infections is alot shorter than I thought. But I never thought this short. [/QUOTE]
