What are the common diseases of cattle?

Cattle is a very common kind of poultry in rural areas. although the body of cattle is so large, its own resistance is very weak, and it is the most likely to get sick among poultry. Today, Xiaobian has brought you several of the most common diseases of cattle.

1. Bovine epidemic fever

Bovine epidemic fever is caused by the virus is a highly contagious epidemic, suddenly, cattle will suddenly burst into tears, the whole body will be hot, runny nose, breathing will be very loud, and limbs will be very painful, do not want to walk. The main transmission medium of this disease is some blood-sucking worms. For the time being, there is no special drug treatment, so we can only prevent it in advance. We can spray insecticides in the cowshed, often disinfect the barn, reduce the number of bugs, reduce the transmission rate, and vaccinate well in advance. Control the circulation of the virus!

2. Rumen accumulated food

Rumen accumulated food is due to the accumulation of a lot of indigestible food in the bovine stomach, resulting in a large amount of food accumulation in the rumen, serious gastric wall overstocking and motor paralysis. The main feature is that the stomach becomes very hard, diarrhea, very smelly and dark, more serious feces with blood and unknown liquid, faster breathing, faster heartbeat, not usually docile, become very manic! When feeding cattle, you should put food that is easy to digest and do not expand. If rumen accumulation occurs, stop feeding and drink more. Don't let the cow lie down and let the rumen move. In serious cases, you can only cut open the rumen to take out the accumulated food.

3. Rumen flatulence

Rumen flatulence is due to the fact that the cow eats a lot of food that is easy to produce gas. when these food enters the rumen, the rumen will ferment quickly and the stomach will be filled with gas. the main feature is that the cow will not eat, the belly becomes bulging and very soft, and breathing becomes very difficult. This is to immediately let the cow lie on the slope, touch the belly with hands, slowly discharge the gas, or use a cannula needle to pierce the rumen and deflate, and choose the most bulging place to cut off the hair. Then disinfect, make a small cut in the skin and insert the needle to deflate. If it doesn't work, it can only be treated with drugs.

4. Bovine anthracnose

Like bovine epidemic fever, bovine anthracnose is also a highly contagious infectious disease. at the initial stage of the disease, the body temperature of cattle will rise rapidly, loss of appetite, it will be difficult to breathe, blood spots will appear on the skin, constipation will occur at the beginning, severe bleeding will occur, and the disease will die in just a few hours. The disease can be treated with antibiotics and sulfonamides at the initial stage, but the later treatment is useless. The disease should be prevented by injecting cattle with non-toxic anthrax spore vaccine or No. 2 anthrax spore vaccine once a year.

The above four are the more common diseases of cattle, for breeding cattle, it is still necessary to pay attention to the epidemic time of several epidemics and the feed feeding of cattle. To learn more about other symptoms of cattle, please follow the pro-farm network!
