As title. Does anyone use it and if you do, have you seen benefits? We had a bad time calving last year. Losing calves to scours etc. Never had a problem before. On vets advice we did the spring calvers with BVD vaccine, but as Winter ones were already in calf we left them. They start calving end of Oct/Nov so have been thinking of doing with bovivac, or should we just do the calf with the paste as birth? Already routinely bolus with trace sure boluses.
