[QUOTE="IowaKid, post: 522548, member: 8129"] Just got off the phone with the breeder, "vac 2x per year for BVD, ibv, lepto etc" Said he has had some of the same problems this year but neither of their Vets could pinpoint a cause other than the nasty winter we've all had. I know a lot of other farmers having issues this spring with oversize calves etc. Just trying to figure out why all 3 @ this location were the "bad ones..." Our vet was out for the one sunday and said it looked like more of a string of bad luck than anything. Testing on small calf was "inconclusive." I would've liked to "dope" the heavy one, but we haven't generally kept supplies like this on hand as most of our herd throw 60-70 lb calves w/ ease and we weren't expecting anything that large from this heifer... (Believe me, I'll have a bottle of each close just incase!!! Call it insurance.) [/QUOTE]
