Is there a cure for Blackleg?

Answer:
No. The only way you can "cure" a calf, if the disease is caught in the early stages (which is quite rare) is to inject massive doses of penicillin and tetracyclines into the calf. Other than that the best "cure" is prevention, by vaccinating your herd for blackleg before the disease shows itself.
