Books by Heather Smith Thomas

Beginning with detailed information on how to detect signs of illness, this book takes readers through the various causes of cattle health problems, describing symptoms and discussing prevention and treatment. It offers advice on handling bacterial and viral diseases; digestive and respiratory problems; and, eye, skin, foot and mouth irritations.

Healthy pregnancies, safe births, and thriving calves are critical to every cattle operation, and in remote farm locations, the veterinarian is not always readily available. The author covers various routine situations likely to arise before, during, and after calving.
