tim - I went to a BT forum at The Royal Show & I'm sure the vet said that calves don't get immunity from their dam. The earliest they could be vaccinated was one month old. Check with you vet just to make sure.
Our vet is taking names of people who only want a few doses of vaccine, then when they have enough for a whole bottle they break it up accordingly. If you asked I expect your vet would do the same.
