[QUOTE="Lucky_P, post: 1324602, member: 12607"] Saw my first case of blackleg of the season yesterday - 2 month-old heifer calf; found dead. No lesions in large muscle masses in the limbs, so palpation would not have necessarily allowed you to feel crepitance (gas bubbles crackling) in the deep tissues - but the lesions were characteristic in the heart, diaphragm and some of the sternal/intercostal muscles in the the chest wall. If you've not started vaccinations on your calves yet... better get on it! [/QUOTE]
