[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 627554, member: 968"] I'm not arguing with you. Your point is taken & I agree they do not breed with uterine infections. But, maybe what MM said holds true. Beef cattle in good health & condition are not prone to get infections. Everyone that's been in the business for a long time, have their own tried & true methods of handling problems. I go to lots of clinics & read lots of articles (have to for my newsletter) and was "converted" years ago. As Dun always says, benign ignorance sometimes works best. I went with the research, and leave them alone. Rarely have one, but it does happen. Never had one removed (in earliest years because we didn't know any better), never had a bad infection, never caused a cow not to rebreed. Yes, lots of cows have mild infections but their system is designed to clean it out themselves. Yes, IF THEY ARE SICK, they need to be treated. Never had one, but I have to "assume" that a cow with a bad uterine infection will run a fever?? yes?? no?? I don't know. [/QUOTE]
