As many have heard, there is a shortage on Bangs vaccine. As a result, the ND State Board of Animal Health has temporarily extended the age requirement for heifer brucellosis vaccination from 12 months to 14 months. WRVC is hard at work with our suppliers to make sure we have enough vaccine on hand to cover our clients needs.
Along those lines, the USDA also passed the rule requiring EID tags in all cattle needing an official ID. As of November 5, 2024, EID tags are required and metal tags will no longer be put in as official ID's. There is a lot of misinformation being spread and we have received a lot of questions, so we wanted to try to clear up some of the common myths we have heard:
