14 Month old heifers

landybeast

Hello I was looking at 14 month old heifers today they are in TB test but bloods were never done. Do bloods have to be done before movement ? or before 60 days in my herd ? or not until 18 months or next herd test Sorry a lot of questions but i normally have a closed herd

No need to blood them when buying in as they are under 18 months.

Check how long ago the TB test was done. I'm slow to buy when the test is over 6 months old unless I know it is a clean area TB wise. It would be a shame to bring anything into your closed herd

You also need to TB test them within a month of bringing them into your herd. If you don't it will jeopardize your chances of getting the grant for them if you get locked up.
