However, when they are 3 to 4 months old, they become susceptible to the disease, so all calves should be vaccinated for blackleg by 4 months of age. A revaccination 3 to 6 weeks later according to product label directions is necessary to provide the best protec-tion.lackleg seldom affects cattle older than 2 years of age, most likely due to immunity induced by vaccines or natural exposure. However, sporadic cases do occur in cattle older than 2 years and are often associated with the reuse of needles for multiple injections.
Calves at high risk of exposure should be vaccinated twice 4-6weeks apart before they are 6months old. They then require a 3rd booster injection at 6 months of age due to the possibility of maternal antibodies interfering with the initial 2 injections. Calves over 6months old need two vaccinations, 4-6weeks apart.
