Another Clear TB test

Well all went without a hitch for the TB testing, and no reactors thankfully.  The reactor is picked up with a hot lump at the injection site just under the top of the tail.  If we had one, we would've kept the beast seperate until a blood test could've been taken 10 days later.  We have had problems in the past with Avian Tuberculosis which will give a false positive to Bovine TB.  People can contract Avian TB, but NOT from cattle, just from birds.  Usually when birds have fouled roofs and rainwater has been collected of them containing the droppings.

TB tester in action

The testing is done by independent people so noone can falsify the result.
