Everywhere I look it is unavailable.It's sold out in my local feed stores . I haven't looked online yet.
No. That was antibiotics only. And that hasn't taken effect yet.Could this related to the soon to be "prescription required" thing?
Wrong. Your information must come from someone with a reading comprehension problem.I had thought you couldn't use MLV when cows are pregnant or when they have calves on them, unless they were vaccinated with a MLV as heifers.
You got that almost correct.Wrong. Your information must come from someone with a reading comprehension problem.
MLV vaccines are not to be used in calves if nursing on cows that have never been vaccinated with the MLV vaccine.
MLV vaccines are not to be used in pregnant cows or heifers.
You can vaccinate an Open cow with a MLV whether a calf is nursing or even if the milk is used for human consumption.
My belief that you can't vaccinate cows when they are pregnant or nursing came from my own interpretation of things I had read or heard in the past. So I guess I was the one with the reading comprehension problem. I have no one else to blame. I heard "pregnant cow, nursing calves" and that caused me to be over cautious. I was also concerned about mixing the live vaccine and working fast enough to keep it viable. We ended up buying it all in 10 dose vials, so we did not have to hurry. We could just bring up 10 at a time.Wrong. Your information must come from someone with a reading comprehension problem.

None of these cows are PG. The bulls won't go in until the middle of May and the last 2023 calf was born the end of March.Our Co-Op just got in a limited supply too and I lucked out - they had the variant that I needed. VL6 HB + Somnus.
Katpu - I hope your vet is correct. I lost 2 late terms calves when I did that. No more.
If the cows were vaccinated as open and boostered annually then you can use certain MLV. The BoviShield Gold 5 product line was the first to market FP (fetal protection) . I use MLV vaccines on all my cow and calves. Cheaper vaccine with better immunity.Wrong. Your information must come from someone with a reading comprehension problem.

Explanation please.You got that almost correct.
It was explained in the posts following mine. But you asked so:Explanation please.
MLV's are safe to use on cattle that are not naïve. So, vaccinate pre-breeding according to label directions with MLV to safely use MLV's during pregnancy.MLV vaccines are not to be used in pregnant cows or heifers.
