What to do if the sheep does not ruminate, the easiest way for the sheep not to ruminate?

Sheep rumination refers to the activity of herbivores regurgitating food balls through the rumen into the mouth, chewing and swallowing again. It consists of 4 processes: regurgitation, re-chewing, remixing saliva and re-swallowing.

Sheep ruminant can further grind the feed, while keeping the rumen an extremely anaerobic, constant temperature (39C-40C), pH value (constant environment, conducive to rumen microorganisms survival, reproduction and digestive activities.

Sheep can eat a large amount of forage in a short period of time, which is softened, mixed and fermented by the rumen, and then ruminated. First, regurgitate 1 bolus in the mouth, chew 70-80 times and then swallow it, and so on one by one. The number of regurgitating food bollets per day is about 500, and under normal circumstances, 40-70 minutes after eating the food, Zheng returns, that is, the first rumination cycle occurs in the cong sedan car.

Sheep ruminant. Sheep are ruminants.

When eating food, it will be swallowed after simple chewing, and after eating, the food eaten into the stomach will be returned from the rumen, and then chewed again in the mouth, this process is the rumination of sheep. Sheep is a general term for the sheep subfamily, one of the domestic animals of humans, and the main ** of wool. Sheep is the most complex subfamily of members, and the body shape and habits of the members are quite different, and they can be divided into several different families.

Members of the subfamily Sheep mostly live in highlands and mountains, and their distribution center is the hinterland of Asia.

Ruminants: Ruminants are artiodactyls.

in one of the suborders. Rumination refers to the return of semi-digested food in the stomach to the mouth after eating for a period of time, and ruminants are animals that have this way of digestion. Usually some herbivores.

Because plant fiber is more difficult to digest. Ruminants generally eat in a hurry, especially roughage, most of which are swallowed into the rumen without sufficient chewing, and after a period of soaking and softening in the rumen, the food is re-opened and regurgitated back to the mouth, and after chewing, it is mixed with saliva again and swallowed into the rumen again.

1. Fasting measures When the sheep does not regurgitate, it is necessary to fasting the sheep for 24-48 hours, during which only clean and hygienic water is provided to the sheep, and after its food accumulation improves, it is gradually fed with easily digestible feed to promote slow movement of the stomach. 2. In the process of rumen massage and sheep breeding, once it is found that the sheep has serious food accumulation, you can use your hands to massage back and forth in the abdominal wall of the sheep rumen for 12-15 minutes, and massage 3 times a day. 3. The use of medicine can be mixed with 150 grams of artificial salt, 10 grams of fish paraffin and water, and given to the sheep for irrigation or gastric lavage, so as to alleviate the stomach accumulation, promote the sheep to ruminate, or give the sheep vegetable oil to promote gastrointestinal digestion, generally 400 ml of skin irrigation at a time.

4. The main reason for the accumulation of food is that the feeding management is improper, and the amount of feed fed to the sheep is too large, the feeding water is too little, and the proportion of forage is insufficient, which leads to the continuous expansion of its stomach, and the stomach is overfed and cannot be digested.

Hello, glad the hereditary search for your question. The reasons are as follows: 1. Diarrhea caused by indigestion or sudden wind and cold, the body temperature of sick sheep is generally not high, and the loose stool often contains undigested forage residues, and the feces are sour, and the sick sheep still maintain a certain appetite.

2. Diarrhea caused by gastrointestinal parasites, the body temperature of sheep generally does not rise, diarrhea is not too bad, sometimes good and sometimes bad, eating and drinking are basically normal, and worms can often be found in the feces of sick sheep. 3. Diarrhea caused by eating moldy feed, and the body temperature does not rise or rises slightly. However, due to the difference in the amount of moldy feed, as well as the degree of mold rot of the feed, the season, the type of Zen and so on, the pull is rare and heavy.

4. Due to diarrhea caused by infectious disease bacteria or viruses, the body temperature of the sick sheep increases, the spirit is depressed, the appetite is lost or wasted, the feces are foul-smelling, often with mucus, and the condition is generally serious.

In the process of sheep raising, farmers often have the phenomenon that sheep do not ruminate. Generally speaking, there are 2 reasons why sheep do not ruminate.

1.Eating grass with a lot of dew or eating too much grain. If the sheep does not ruminate, the rumen in the body will not be able to ruminate normally, and the sheep will have symptoms such as swelling and stopping feeding, which will have a serious impact on the growth and development of the sheep, and will lead to the death of the sheep if it is serious.

2.Recently, sheep PPR epidemic has been found in many regions of China, which poses a great threat to sheep production, and the disease will also cause sheep not to ruminate.

In view of the reasons why sheep do not ruminate, farmers should take different measures:

1.If the sheep does not ruminate due to esophageal infarction, farmers should help the sheep remove the blockage in the esophagus as soon as possible, and can use hands or some tools to clip out the blockage in the sheep's esophagus. If the sheep does not ruminate due to rumen accumulation, farmers can massage the rumen part of the sheep with the palm of their hands to promote rumen peristalsis.

And it should be noted that when feeding sheep, you should avoid using spoiled or rancid feed for feeding, otherwise the sheep will easily cause the sheep not to ruminate due to rumen accumulation.

2.If the sheep have PPR, the sheep that cause the sheep not to ruminate should be prompted. **Measures:

1) Disinfect the area around the sheep house twice a day with iodine disinfectant.

2) Use Tianxingjian Sheep Quanqing with canavalin intramuscular injection, 1 time a day, for 2 days.

3) For pregnant ewes, inject twice a day according to the ** amount. After two days, a scab appears on the site of the suppuration, which completely returns to normal after the scab.

Sheep non-rumination is a relatively common disease in sheep production, if farmers find that sheep do not ruminate in the process of breeding, the above methods can be used, and should be carried out as soon as possible to prevent non-rumination from affecting the normal growth of sheep.

This is a typical rumen fluff caused by rumen flatulence, ** method is to stop eating for a day in sick sheep, only give warm water, the water temperature is not too high, 20 to 30 degrees can be, and then appropriately feed some juicy and easily digestible forage, inject every two or three hours with neostigmine according to the instructions for use or inject with ruminant to help sheep rumen peristalsis rumination.

Recently, many farmers have reported that there is a new outbreak against small ruminants. Symptoms mostly are: high body temperature:

The acute body temperature can rise to 41 and last for 3 to 5 days. Infected animals are irritable, have dull back hair, dry mouth and nose, and loss of appetite. Mucopurulent nasal discharge, exhaling foul-smelling gas.

In the first 4 days of fever, the oral mucosa is hyperemic, and the buccal mucosa is progressively and extensively damaged, resulting in excessive salivation, followed by necrotizing lesions, which begin to appear small rough red superficial necrotic lesions of the oral mucosa, which later turn pink, and the infected sites include the lower gingiva. In severe cases, necrotic lesions may spread to the dental pads, palate, cheeks, and tongue. Later, he developed bloody diarrhea, severe dehydration, weight loss, and a drop in body temperature.

Cough and abnormal breathing. The incidence is as high as 100%, with a mortality rate of 100% in severe outbreaks and no more than 50% in mild outbreaks. Juvenile animals have high morbidity, morbidity and mortality.

Combined with the above symptoms, some experienced farmers have summarized a set of special PPR programs.

Conavalin combined with plus + force intramuscular injection for 3-5 days. At the same time, the symptoms are treated according to the corresponding symptoms**. The results are remarkable.

There is no effective treatment for small ruminants, and the initial use of antibiotics and sulfonamides can be symptomatic and prevent secondary infection. If a case is found in a clean country or region of the disease, it should be tightly sealed, the affected sheep should be culled, and isolated and disinfected. The prevention and control of this disease mainly depends on vaccine immunization.

** protocol for PPR:

1) pre-morbidity; Use "Hong Kong Longda" sheep plague (sheep immunoglobulin) or sheep serum immunopeptide 200 body weight per bottle + 200 kg weight of canavalin per bottle with ceftiofur sodium, intramuscular injection, (preferably injected at different points), and hit once.

2) In the middle and late stages of the disease: use sheep serum immunopeptide (20ml) per bottle of 150 kg of body weight + cancanavalin and 3-5mg of rice, once a day, for two days. Prevent by halving or respecting doctor's advice.

After finding that the sheep does not ruminate, you can stand behind the sheep, carefully touch the left abdominal position, and then compare it with the healthy sheep. If it's hard, it's probably the rumen.

If it is soft to the touch, it may be a sluggish forestomach. It can be carried out according to the principles of strengthening rumen peristalsis, promoting rumination, and enhancing digestion. First give the sheep 50-90 grams of soda, after two hours in the irrigation of 2-3 catties of oil, after 12 hours of regurgitation can be poured regurgitant.

Sheep feeding precautions.

The sheep house should be built in a dry and high place with good ventilation, good ventilation, shelter from rain, preferably with a floor, and avoid low-lying muddy places. In winter and spring, there should be a warm house with a leeward and sunny side, and there should be no small holes and thieves, and no sheepfold manure should be raised to keep dry sheep manure absorbing water and heat production.

If the water is insufficient, the reproduction and growth of the sheep will be affected, and the severe shortage of water will be life-threatening. Drink water at least twice a day and more often in the summer. In the winter when the pasture grass is dry, sufficient drinking water should be provided, the pool should be kept clean, avoid drinking water from ditches and dead pits, and drink warm water in winter.
