Early Detection of Sick Animals
Early Detection of Sick Animals
When sheep and goats eat out of the same trough, they
can easily transmit or contract the disease. Overcrowding
and poor ventilation contribute to the spread of the
disease. Dry, dusty conditions and irritants such as flies
tend to predispose or exacerbate the disease. Flies or
dust can carry the bacteria to the eye.
DIARRHEA - Coccidia and/or worms
are often the cause of diarrhea in kids
over one month of age. ... Heavy parasite
loads can cause diarrhea in adult goats.
Almost anything which negatively affects
the proper functioning of the goat's rumen
can cause scouring.
