Common problems of novice sheep breeders

Raising sheep is a more technical project, it is not as simple as watching videos every day, especially when sheep get sick. Many novice sheep farmers are most likely to have the following problems, which should also be understood by farmers who have just raised sheep.

1. Set up breeding grounds blindly

Nowadays, novice sheep farmers always like to build sheep pens with the mentality of being prepared for trouble. it doesn't matter whether some facilities are useful or not, it doesn't matter if they plan them first, especially after seeing other people's perfect breeding grounds. This is actually very irrational, such a waste of space in addition to money, you are just beginning to raise sheep, inexperienced in many aspects, the layout is not necessarily reasonable, the more construction now, the greater the cost of rectification and reform in the later stage. At the beginning, we should not think about building a perfect sheepfold, ordinary people do not have such capital, as long as we can probably run, and then slowly supplement what we need, small investment is also conducive to rectification and reform.

2. The sheepfold is unguarded

Many people have a very low mind for the prevention of farms, and the prevention here does not refer to things like stealing, but to the prevention of foreign objects. A farm should prevent the random entry and exit of some other animals, because you don't know if these animals will spread the disease to the sheepfold, especially those with higher risks such as cats and dogs. In addition, it is for the sheep may have a fight situation to prevent, for the body has abnormal injuries must be clear about the cause, a little bit more precautions.

3. Tonifying sheep without observation

There are inevitable losses in the process of raising sheep, especially in the novice stage, there are also some sheep who temporarily want to expand the scale, and mending sheep has become everyone's choice. The common problem of novice mending sheep is to mix sheep directly as soon as they get it, no matter what else, as to whether the supplementary breeding is safe or not, they don't know what's going on. The newly replenished sheep should be marked, and then raised separately for 1-2 weeks to observe the situation, do all kinds of tests, vaccination and then mixed breeding, because you do not know whether the sheep carry diseases, but it is always right to take precautions.

4. Indiscriminate use of drugs in case of illness

The diseases of sheep will have to be faced sooner or later, but when a novice encounters this problem, he is easy to get nervous, because he has not come into contact with these diseases and does not understand their harm, so he always thinks that any sick sheep will die. In fact, sheep are not so fragile. When you encounter some diseases you don't know, you'd better go to a veterinarian first. Don't rush to start taking medicine according to the description in some books. The symptoms of many diseases are very similar. You will find that many diseases are the same by light and text comparison. The risk of using the wrong medicine is still greater.

These are some situations that beginners tend to encounter when raising sheep, and these problems are actually affected by everyone's psychological fluctuations. When you are calm, you will pay attention to a lot of details, anyway, these problems will often appear, to engage in breeding to a certain psychological quality.
