I was not aware of IE in Horned Herefords. I know the Canadian Association announced this year they were going to start testing for it, along with a few other things.
Has the American Association been testing for it? Which lines are carriers? H76 any advice on this?
As a separate note, is idiopathic epilepsy identified in either the gelbvieh or red angus breeds? We used a RA x Gelbvieh terminal bull for a few years and shipped him this year (like H76, just to say we did the crossbreeding deal). Over 50% of the calves off of him this past year showed either full blown IE or symptoms. Never had experienced anything like that before and don't want to ever again.
