[QUOTE="Samcowman, post: 7506241, member: 36"] Best practise with a PI is to shoot it if it’s a calf then check it’s mother to see if she is a PI. Doing this can clear out BVD from your herd in one year because if the calf is clear it means the cow is clear. The dam of a PI won’t necessarily be a PI. It is going to cost you in testing whether you tag test all calves born and incoming heifers or if you do a screening blood test. Which chances are there is exposure in the herd due to buying in replacements so you would need to tag test anyway. [/QUOTE]
