Vaccinations

[bizybeehill]

I recently aquired four new heifers. The recomendation from or extension office is, Vaccinations 7- way clostridial Respiratory (IBR, BVD, PI3, BRSV virus vaccines, consider Pasteurella) Brucellosis for replacement heifers. What are you all using to cover all of this ?? Two of the heifers I am sure will be kept for replacements, the others we will see how they grow up.

Thanks,

All of those. My 4 way is Modified Live. I sue the Bovishield Gold 5 FP. It is 4 way and 5 way lepto combined. Watch the age on your heifers. After 11 months my vet does not vaccinate them. They will show a false positive. so vaccinate them befor a year old. I try to at 6 months.

I am sorry. The comment on the 11 months is for Brucellosis. You can vaccinate for all the others at times their whole life.

Does that cover them for Pasteurella and Brucellosis ??

all our calves get:
Bovishield Gold 5
One Shot ultra 7
Somubac
TSV-2
thias cover them for everything of concern in our area. The TSV-2 is a shot with a much faster response since it is an internasal shot. Definatly go for the Modified live BVD shot(BSG5)
