Viruses were extremely âpopularâ in the â90s, which is when the term âAntivirusâ became common, but today viruses are the minority when it comes to malware. There are, however, a few at-large viruses currently evolving and spreading, these include âSalityâ and âVirutâ.
Thatâs especially true when it comes to the leg labeled health, and thatâs reason enough, Baker says, to consider vaccinating your calves at branding or turnout. Traditionally, the recommendation has been to wait until calves are at least four months old before administering any vaccines. That way, goes the conventional wisdom, thereâs a reduced chance that the antibodies in the colostrum will cancel the effects of the vaccine.
Calves can be ready for weaning by 3 to 4 weeks of age; however, in Penn State studies calves weaned at 3 weeks required extra attention. The increased time and labor required to get these calves eating starter suggest that waiting until 4 weeks of age would be prudent.eaning at 30 days saved $13 compared to weaning at 45 days. If we use 2007 milk replacer costs in this analysis, we see that weaning at 4 weeks may save as much as $55 per calf over 8-week weaning. Weaning at 45 days will save up to $30 per calf over 60 days.
