I bought some calves that were born last May (09). They were vaccinated then and then again in Nov. 2009 with Triangle 9 & blackleg. Do I need to vaccinate again in May of with the same or are they okay for now?

Yes. You should talk to a vet in your area to see what they suggest. Our vet actually suggests doing them 2 times a year and we do. I know it adds a little extra cost and can't say for sure it helps anymore. We had some abort a few years ago due to lepto and we went to this vaccine program. We were told that the Lepto portion of the vaccine is only good for 6 months. Building a relationship with a local vet before you have problems is a good thing. Our vet is very helpful and they always did health papers on my daughters show calves without even looking at them. They knew we had a vaccination program, been to the farm and knew we took care of things.cattlepower":hhae390g said:tom4018":hhae390g said:Triangle 9 requires a annual booster shot.
I'm new to this. When you say booster do you mean the same vaccine and dosage should be given to them in May of this year?
