[QUOTE="Tim W, post: 8137091, member: 72"] I think it's a retrovirus ---spreads through inhalation of airborne virus/snot & mucus from infected animals and milk/colostrum So it is quite infectious (otherwise it wouldn't be spread through a whole population?) especially in housed animals You can scan for early development and there are good case studies of flocks scanning/culling their way out of it ---but the scanning isn't that accurate and it needs to be done on a 6 monthly basis to be effective i think? Tell the seller that he has it ----it's then his/her responsibility to do something [/QUOTE]
