Red Rocky Lick Bricks are specially designed for ruminants. The balanced nutritional formula can promote the growth and development of cattle, increase milk production, increase body weight and increase reproduction rate. Magnesium, iron, cobalt, iodine, manganese, zinc, selenium, sodium, copper and other elements interact and participate in the metabolism of the body, so it has a great effect and influence on the health, weight gain, milk production, reproduction and other aspects of cattle, and finally brings breeding benefits. Phosphorus-rich Lodge, also known as "pregnancy-promoting Lodge", is specially designed and produced for breeding livestock, especially in the high-yield period of dairy cows, phosphorus, calcium, zinc, magnesium, iron, cobalt, iodine, manganese, selenium, sodium, etc. The interaction of mineral trace elements plays a very important role in improving the health index, reproduction rate and milk yield of dairy cows, and will affect the final profit and return.

SeleniumDeficiency is based on myocardial, boneA metabolic disease characterized by degeneration and necrosis of the skeletal muscles, named after myocarditis.

Because of its diseased muscle fade, was boiled meat or fish-like appearance, it is also called white myopathy. The disease is caused by the lack of selenium in feed, and it is more common in 1-3 month old calves.

 
Etiology
 

1. Primary: caused by too little selenium content in soil and forage.

2, secondary: when the sulfide content in the soil is too much (mostly due to the application of sulfur fertilizer) or the intake of forage sulfate content is too large, due to the reaction of selenium and sulfur, reduce the absorption and utilization of selenium in the feed, resulting in selenium deficiency.

3. In addition, stress factors such as sudden changes in weather can also induce the disease.

 
Symptoms
 

1. Acute type: 10-120-day-old calves with sudden onset, hyperactivity, irregular rhythm, ataxia, and death from heart failure in a short time.

2. Sub-acute type: sick cattle are depressed in spirit, slow in walking, hard in back and waist, shaking in hindquarters, and lying down in the later period. Swelling of the buttocks, hard and solid touch, accelerated breathing, increased pulse, more than 120 beats per minute, and arrhythmia, usually death within 6-12 hours of onset.

3. Chronic type: the development of sick cattle is stagnant, dyspeptic diarrhea, weight loss, coarse hair, dull hair, spinal curvature, general weakness, like lying and unwilling to stand. Light calves if timely and reasonable treatment is expected to heal. Occasional secondary foreign body pneumonia or enteritis and other diseases.

 

course of disease and prognosis
 

Calves with acute selenium deficiency disease have rapid onset, rapid death, and high mortality. The course of subacute type is more than 1-2 weeks, and the chronic type is longer. In addition to the acute type, as long as early diagnosis, give reasonable treatment, high cure rate, good prognosis.

Red RockyThe licking brick is specially designed for ruminants. The balanced nutrition formula can promote the growth and development of cattle, increase milk production, increase body weight and increase reproduction rate. Magnesium, iron, cobalt, iodine, manganese, zinc, selenium, sodium, copper and other elements interact and participate in the metabolism of the body, so it has a great effect and influence on the health, weight gain, milk production, reproduction and other aspects of cattle, and finally brings breeding benefits.

 

Phosphorus-rich RockyAlso known as"Progestational Rocky", is specially designed and produced for breeding livestock, especially in the high-yield period of dairy cows, phosphorus, calcium, zinc, magnesium, iron, cobalt, iodine, manganese, selenium, sodium and other mineral trace elements interact with each other, which plays a very important role in improving the health index, reproduction rate and milk yield of dairy cows, and will affect the final profit and return.

 
prevention and control
 

1. For cattle with selenium deficiency disease, on the premise of improving feeding management (such as restricting activities, keeping cattle houses warm, avoiding stress factors, etc.), it is appropriate to implement symptomatic therapy and symptomatic therapy, such as intramuscular injection of sodium selenite solution 0.1 mg/kg body weight or oral sodium selenite solution 10 mg/50kg body weight, and administration again at intervals of 2-3 days, or vitamin E preparation.

2. For chronic cases, antibiotics or sulfonamides should be selected for anti-inflammation, and hormone therapy and various drugs that nourish myocardium should not be combined, especially concentrated sugar, vitamin C and salvia miltiorrhiza solution to buffer myocardial inflammation.

3. Selenium supplement measures are usually taken to prevent the disease, increase the licking of licking bricks, and often take selenium salt orally. For newly born calves, sodium selenite solution (3-5 mg) and vitamin E(50-150 mg) are injected subcutaneously, and then injected once after an interval of 2 weeks.

Attention
 

1. It is not advisable to use cardiotonic agents in the early stage of the disease to prevent cardiac nerve excitement and accelerate heart failure and cause death. Only when chronic heart failure occurs, sodium camphor sulfonate or sodium potassium can be appropriately selected, but digitalis preparations are not used.

2, strengthen the care of sick calves, avoid exercise and stimulation.
