Treatment of foot rot. For cattle with severe hoof rot disease, clean the affected part, remove rotten meat, spray stock solution, scab in 3-4 days, and most cattle recover in 7 days (hoof bath solution must be used while keeping hoof hygiene). Sino hoof protection can be attached to the diseased part of cow hoof for a long time, which is stronger than ordinary copper sulfate and can remove germs more effectively. Prevention: 2% concentration twice a week Treatment: 5% concentration twice a week, it is recommended to spray directly on the affected area.
Summerbeef cattleIt is particularly prone to the problem of lameness and lameness. Once the disease occurs, it will affect the activity of the cow, and the appetite and growth of the cow will also be affected to a certain extent. Today, I 'd like to take a look at the causes of beef cattle lame and limp, and how to prevent and treat them.
1. The ground of the cowshed is wet. Summer high temperature and humidity, if the manure in the cattle house can not be cleaned up in time, beef cattle living in this environment for a long time, it is easy to suffer from foot rot, hoof leaf inflammation and arthritis and other diseases, resulting in lame limp phenomenon.
2. The ground of the cattle shed is too hard. Many cattle houses are made of cement floor, and beef cattle are often kept by bolting. In the later period, beef cattle weigh more and may be damaged by long-term compression of limbs and hooves.
3. The feed is too acidic. When beef cattle are fed with a large amount of silage, dregs and concentrates and other acidic feeds, the incidence of foot rot, hoof leaf inflammation and arthritis will be greatly increased.
4. Beef cattle suffer from foot-and-mouth disease. When beef cattle suffer from foot-and-mouth disease, due to hoof ulceration, hoof shell off, etc., will also cause lame limp, many suffering from cattle even after the hoof injury is difficult to heal, lame phenomenon will last for a long time.
1, reduce the cowshed humidity. In summer, the manure in the cowshed must be cleaned up in time and ventilation should be strengthened to reduce the humidity in the cowshed. When the cowshed is too wet, can be sprinkled with a layer of dry sand or ash, in order to absorb the moisture on the ground.
2. Increase the amount of exercise. The amount of exercise and illumination time of beef cattle can be increased appropriately, which is of great help to prevent the occurrence of limb and hoof disease in beef cattle. For fattening cattle, the bolting time can be delayed, the calf period and shelf period can be used in a scattered mode, and finally after entering the intensive fattening period, the bolting time should not exceed 120 days.
3. Adjust the feed ratio. When there is limb and hoof disease in beef cattle in the herd, the feed ratio scheme should be adjusted in time to appropriately reduce the feeding amount of silage, dregs and concentrates and other acidic feeds, and at the same time, the addition amount of green hay feed and sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) should be appropriately increased.
4. Preventionfoot-and-mouth disease. Cattle must be regularly immunized with foot-and-mouth disease vaccine to reduce the incidence of foot-and-mouth disease in beef cattle. There are many types of foot-and-mouth disease strains, and it is difficult to form cross-immune protection between them. We should choose multivalent foot-and-mouth disease vaccine as much as possible and inject cattle 2 to 3 times a year.
1. Improve the feeding environment. In order to treat the lame leg of beef cattle, it is very important to improve the feeding environment. First of all, the affected cattle should be transferred to a dry barn, and laid with grass, so that the affected cattle can stand and rest on the soft grass, so as to reduce the burden of weight on the limbs and hooves. Secondly, when the weather is good, the affected cattle can be taken outside the barn to bask in the sun, which is helpful for the recovery of the disease.
2、foot rotThe treatment. For cattle with severe hoof rot disease, clean the affected part, remove rotting meat, spray stock solution, scab in 3-4 days, and most cattle recover in 7 days (hoof bath solution must be used while keeping hoof hygiene)Sinoe HoofCan be attached to the cow hoof disease for a long time, than ordinary copper sulfate adhesion is strong, can be more effective in removing bacteria.
Prevention: 2% concentration twice a week
Treatment: 5% concentration twice a week, it is recommended to spray directly on the affected area.
3、hoof leaf inflammationThe treatment. Similarly, the affected cow's hoof is cleaned first, and then procaine penicillin 400000 units are injected into the swollen part of the hoof crown twice a day for 3-5 days. Generally, the swollen hoof crown can disappear.
4. Treatment of arthritis. This is the most difficult to treat in beef cattle limb and hoof disease. Penicillin, streptomycin and Antoine can be injected intramuscularly for mild symptoms. For severe cases, the effusion in joints should be extracted before treatment. For some cattle with particularly serious arthritis, it is recommended to be eliminated in advance, because the effect of treatment is not great, and it will lose fat.
