The breeding area of sheep in our country is very large, and the breeding methods of sheep can be divided into captive breeding and grazing. And no matter what kind of breeding method, we should pay attention to do a good job of epidemic prevention.

So today, the editor will introduce the main points of epidemic prevention of raising sheep in winter. Let's take a look at it.

1. Disinfection system

When raising sheep, if the breeding scale is large, it can be divided into production areas, office areas and other farm areas. Then the production area should be separated from the office area. And in the sheep farm gate and the door of the production area to set up a good disinfection pool, in and out of the personnel should be disinfected, disinfectant solution should also be changed regularly to ensure disinfection effect. Disinfection must be carried out when entering the sheep farm, whether it is personnel or vehicles. And around the sheep farm should also pay attention to do a good job of disinfection, to avoid insects or other animals, such as mice and other germs caused by sheep disease.

For breeders, the growth of sheep should be checked regularly every day. If abnormal sheep are found, corresponding measures should be taken in a timely manner. It is necessary to do a good job in quarantine for breeder sheep purchased from outside, and to do a good job in isolation and breeding after problems arise. Try to avoid visits by unrelated personnel. Breeders should pay attention to changing overalls after entering the production area. In addition, regular immunization should be done in strict accordance with the immunization procedure, with particular attention to the prevention of key diseases such as foot-and-mouth disease, sheep fast disease, sheep pox, and so on.

In addition to epidemic prevention, deworming is also something that we cannot ignore. After the lambs are weaned, a deworming work is carried out, and once in about two months in the spring, summer and autumn. If it is a large group, it will be dewormed once in spring and autumn, and every month in summer. Take a medicine bath in May or August, put in a sufficient dose, and pay attention to changing drugs regularly to avoid drug resistance of parasites.

If the delivery room needs to be used, then a flame disinfection should be carried out before entering the sheep. When disinfecting, the walls, corners and raising utensils in the house should be thoroughly disinfected. And the excreta produced by the sheep should also be cleaned up in time to prevent breeding bacteria from affecting the growth of the sheep.
