New Johne's test??

[HappyFarmer]

Has anybody done this either on your own or through your vet?

Wondering if the overall cost would be cheaper than drawing blood. Maybe some headway can be made on this horrific disease. I can't seem to open the .pdf at the bottom of the website, so can't read more about it.

See blip below.
