What about cows that will calve in the fall? It's late spring. What do I need to do?

Pregnancy check the cows calving in the fall (if they have been yet), and vaccinate them for blackleg, leptospirois, vibriosis, and bovine respiratory disease (use a vaccine safe for pregnant cows). Control internal and external parasites on and in them if the cowherd is in an area where this is a recommended management practice.
