[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 6762112, member: 86168"] I was told about the 'screw' cattle, with TB, or Johnes, back years ago, before TB was addressed, Johnes sort of went on the back burner for years, bit about when I started, but never worried about it for 30 odd years just never saw it, and I wonder, now its in the news again, whether that is because milkers are living longer ? But, I have never seen a screw animal, with tb, presumably, because it gets picked up quickly ? Has anyone one seen a screw cow, with chronic TB ? The ever increasing cost of TB testing, compensation, let alone the paperwork, might be the saving/or not, as the gov might listen to some vets, and actually get on and sort it, to 'save' money.
