Subject: Ear damage (pics)


Iowa
About 25% of my heifer calves have developed this ear damage in the past month or so.

I know it will look like frostbite, but these are April and May Calves.

It is only on the ears of the heifers, no steers have this. It is only on the ear with the brucellosis metal tag. They are not getting any fescue.

Has anyone seen this before? Is it infection caused by the metal tag? Have never had this happen before and really don’t want to have this problem in the future.
