Remember proper injection sites at calf-working time

The month of May is traditionally the time when “spring round-ups” take place. This is the time that large and small cow/calf operations schedule the “working” of the calves. As the majority of the calves reach their second month of life, it is time to castrate the male calves and immunize all of the calves to protect them against blackleg. In some situations, calves may be vaccinated for the respiratory diseases (i.e., IBR and BVD). Check with your large animal veterinarian about these immunizations.
