Would ballyragget test it if I brought it down? As its a heifer there would be no antibiotics although it would be very fresh

Changed from sheep/beef so big change really... happy out now only really getting fully set up last week with roadways and the like will makes thing easy having a few paddocks instead of reels everyday
