Currently, the only vaccine I am giving my herd is CDT and I am looking into the pneumonia vaccine and possibly rabies. I am interested in what other people are doing - why, age you give it, and how far apart you space it from other vaccines. If you are giving a live vaccine, please specify why you are doing so.

I have sheep, but we give CDT and rabies. I will be looking into the pnuemonia vaccine to add onto the list.

Does your vet give the rabies or you? Do you get it off Jeffer's? What age do you give it? Is it a one time dose?
Only. a vet can give rabies
It's given once per year
We have an annual
Herd Health check and that's when we do ours
They have to be 6 or 9
mos old to get the first

Right now we only do CDT. Once I start showing I'll probably do the pneumonia vaccine too.

We don't need to do the rabies as we are heavily guarded by the LGD's. The LGD's are ALWAYS kept UTD on their rabies though!

Out LGDs are vaccinated for Rabies too
But one of the biggest carriers of Rabies is bats
An LGD will not protect you from a sick bat in your barn

To many goats with Rabies to not vaccinate
