[QUOTE="larryshoat, post: 913761, member: 6773"] [[color=#FF0000]quote="regolith"]Larry, I'm sending calves off-farm at 4 - 7 days old, probably about 100 a year and just about every year one of them is condemned by the meat company for navel ill.[/color] They're not eligible for transport till the string is dry so every calf has its navel checked and I know for sure that those condemned calves didn't have swollen navels or any other symptoms.
