    Anybody know how long it takes Enfer to send out the results from the BVD test. I sent a batch in a over a week ago. Totally forgot about them and only realised over the weekend (when i was doing another batch)that I got no results back. Must ring in the morning...

    Between 8 and 10 working days. Keep an eye on this thread for any questions. It probably should be stickied for the next year or so but not my call

    i use enfer for the ear notch test, use stormont for the bvd bloods for older cattle, tbh i wouldnot reccommend them , we sent 11 samples on holy thursday and are still waiting for results, have a fella looking for an angus bull and we have the movement permit and all just not the bvd results, ringing the vets everyday looking for them:mad: the blood from the bvd positive calves and their mothers go to backweston

    Same as Whelan1, post them usually on a Sunday and have the results later that week from Enfer.

    Same here too. Usually get them back within 5 working days. One thing I've discovered though is they won't send you results until the calf has been registered. I sent 9 samples the first time round, but only got 8 results back. Once the last calf had been registered the results came the week after.

    I bet you that why I didn't get mine back. I sent the reg cards off to cork on the same day. I got them on Friday. So I suppose there would be a delay until they update their systems. I hope.......
