[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 629626, member: 968"] Cattlemaster is a "modified" MLV - kind of inbetween Killed & MLV. Much better than killed, not as good as MLV. SAFE to use on calves nursing cows. I vaccinate my COWS with a MLV 1 month PRIOR to breeding, than I can use a MLV on the nursing calves. I also give our calves a vaccine for Pasturella (expensive!) I switched from BVS-5 to Vista (has Past in it). You are doing it right - giving BVS Gold 5L5 than BVS BRSV - BUT, there is little price difference, I would hit them the 2nd time with the BVS G 5L5, again. BECAUSE, there is really only about a 80% full coverage with the first shot, so pharmaceutical companies are recommended hitting them twice with MLV - AND - Lepto needs to be boostered also, so you are getting better coverage, and boostering your BRSV & lepto. So, we give cows MLV prior to breeding, MLV (2 doses) to calves during nursing, and again a MLV at weaning. We also deworm calves while nursing (mid summer - sometimes twice) and again in fall. Cowherd dewormed late spring & fall. Looks like you are on a good program. [/QUOTE]
