I have a question for all you cattle experts. We have a small herd of cows in Central Texas. We bought a heifer about a month ago and just now noticed that she has warts on her body in different places. She has been seperated but another heifer already has them. We called the vet and he said that there is a shot for him and that it should make them fall off and disappear. Well I was talking to another vet and he said that they could take up to 6 months to clear up and even if they clear up, the cows will pass them on to their offspring. We are considering selling both heifers to eliminate this problem from the herd (hopefully). Is anyone familiar with this?
