What animals require testing after a reactor is found?

Information detailing which animals require testing should a Tuberculosis (TB) reactor animal be found in a herd.

In general, once we have found reactors on your farm, we will need to test all your cattle, including calves less than 6 weeks old. Very occasionally we may agree not to test certain groups of animals (for example, housed barley beef bulls). If you wish us to consider this, you should discuss this with your Veterinary Officer (VO) before your test is carried out.
