vaccines

How many are vaccinating there does around march and is it working and what are you using? Thank you

I've used Josh Newtons shot for e-coli for the last two years.  This has worked very well for me as what was in the vaccine covered my problem.


Only my mule deer fawn when born would get it at 3 or 4 days.  Losses were bad on fawns till I used that vaccine.  By putting it in the does they produced the right colostrum to protect the fawns.  The first year we had 100% no e-coli in the mule deer fawns and the second year we were at about 80% no problems.  That was the year we didn't get the vaccine in the does at the right time because of production problems.  I also had some fuso problems in fawns both whitetail and mule fawns and that also has been reduced to next to nothing.


I know some other people that didn't have that same good luck as I did but that is because their problem wasn't in  or covered in that vaccine it's as simple as that.

Does anyone use One Shot Ultra 8?  I was considering just using it and the EHD 9 way vaccine from Tx DBC

We use the Cervid Solutions vaccine. Have ever since it came available. Will use it again this year. Great results.

Are you just giving shots to fawns or are you doing does in spring before fawning as well

I vaccinate my does prior to fawning so that if the vaccines actually work it will improve the pass through to their offspring via colostrum.  I also vaccinate everything again in the summer end of July / first of August.  It may hinder my bucks darting them but I don't believe any of these vaccines stay in their system long enough to only do twice a year.  I vaccinate fawns and booster them in the summer as well.. Anything I leave on the doe will be vaccinated at a couple days old and probably miss the booster but everything else on my place get's vaccinated 3 times per year.  Right or wrong that is what I am doing to see if it helps because I can't tell vaccinating twice a year does any good at all..  I've tried a few different vaccine schedules and the only thing I can tell you is I had less EHD problems vaccinating 3 times a year this last year... If I get hit with EHD doing this this year I will not use a single vaccine in 2017.
