  1. I have navel ill at epidemic proportions in my calves. My local vet has taken swab samples from the navel and had the lab analyze them. Nothing unusual was found. Can a vaccine be given to either the cow or the calf as a preventative? Also, what causes navel ill? I'm the only one having a problem with this in my area; none of my neighbors have it. In my herd, calves are all born strong and healthy. It appears that the navel cord is much larger in diameter than before I had this problem. Updated: January 21, 2011
