[QUOTE="callmefence, post: 1347320, member: 24947"] Only buying middle to heavy bred cows is good prevention. If you buy open cows wait 90 ,to 120 days before exposure. I had a group on a lease pasture come up open a couple months back. I kept seeing the bull work cows that should have been breed. I hauled 8 to be checked all open. I had the other 13 checked all open. I had a young untested bull with them (I'll never do that again) decided it didn't matter what the problem was and didn't have the bull tested. Everything was in good flesh so everyone went to town. Restocked the pasture with breads fall calvers a couple weeks ago. With the price drop I didn't get hurt to terrible. I'll never use a untested bull again. My vet did say most likely the bull was sterile. Besides his practice he also test the bulls that go through the auction. ...he's never seen a case of trich [/QUOTE]
