[QUOTE="VAStocker, post: 345343, member: 4458"] This is very serious stuff Herford one of the best places to start is the begining. It is a fact that these cattle have contracted something that has never been in you herd before and what ever it is is seriously effecting herd health. Start a time line 30 days before the first sickness rared it's ugly head did you have someone ride through or even walk through your pasture that had just left another farm where he/she may have brought in the sickness, and don't forget your vet . Have you hauled cattle for someone else and than hauled your cattle in the same stock trailer. Another thing you can document is the fact if you have seen any migratory birds that could have fed in the manure from another herd and brought the sickness in that way A frieind of mine had this very thing happen about 10 years ago from geese and lost about 15 head before it was discovered. Try and think of anything and write it all down just like any sickness there was a carrier that brought this to your herd and finding the source may find the problem. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
