Title: Vaccine to slaughter time
Post by: tandb on June 22, 2009, 07:40:25 pm

Sheep about to have their second vaccine jabs.
Could anyone advise of how long after vaccination they have to wait before slaughter?

what vaccine is it?   I think there is quite a variance depending on the vaccine.    If you go on to mole valley farmers website you can usually find 'data sheets' on the different vaccines that will tell you the withdrawal time

If you look on NOAH National Office of Animal Health, I think and go into Compendium, there are data sheets on very vaccine, drench etc etc. I've got it bookmarked now!

And of course the vaccine instructions should have the withdrawal period stated.
