[QUOTE="glesamiz, post: 506573, member: 6136"] I'm new to this chat group but thought I might give my 2 cents worth. With 32 years of beef cattle practice and 57 years of beef cattle experience I might ask several questions necessary to have a good idea where you're at: Were your cattle tested and found to be carrying antibodies or was there definitive testing done to show they have the diseases. These are totally two different concepts and your response should follow only a definitive diagnosis. Example: Many, many cattle carry antibodies for IBR, Lepto and BVD(Brvd??). This only means that the animal has seen this diseases in the past and doesn't correlate with active disease. Find out for yourself how accurate your diagnoses are before you respond. All of the above comments from others may be totally irrelevant otherwise.
