[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1446713, member: 25884"] If they have come from a closed herd they can probably wait until you go to the vet to do them for the preg chk. I would give the calves a clostridial ( blackleg) shot as soon as possible. We only use killed virus vaccines at any point in time, but that is my preference and is not the choice of my vet. However, he says that it is my choice. We do not vaccinate the cows for anything regularly except Lepto , because it has become a big problem here. Have started to give them a blackleg shot when they go through for the preg check also since we had a problem in one rented pasture and want to cover the bases for the calves getting a good passive immunity from the dams. It will last for 6-10 weeks on average at which time we give the calves a blackleg shot and band the bull calves if they weren't done at birth. We do give them a blackleg/tetanus combo shot when banding. [/QUOTE]
