For those of you who rent out bulls or who rent a bull to bring in with your cows, do you give the bull and/or cows any special vaccinations besides the the normal vibrio and lepto shots?

Vibrio Lepto, Vira Shield, Blackleg, Endovac-Bovi (Pasturella, E-coli, Salmonella, pink-eye)

When sharing bulls, there are several important things to keep in mind. Have a Breeding Soundness exam done! I would recommend having tests for Trich and vibrio, esp. on bulls older than 4 yo. Quarantine the bulls. In my opinion, borrowing or leasing a bull can pose a significant bio-security risk.
