Ep 159: Lameness… A Canary in the Coal Mine w/ Dr. Lacey Fahrmeier

It's the second most costly animal health issue in our industry… Lameness. And today Dr. Lacey Fahrmeier is my guest as we discuss the factors that contribute to animals coming up lame.  We'll talk about nutrition, the environment and even your genetics.  Also, not everything is Footrot and how improper diagnosis can have long-term effects. Plus, what does naval infection in these baby calves have to do with lameness?  Today we cover all the angles of lameness in our cattle and begin to understand that, what is being manifested in the soundness of our cattle could be from an underling issue.
