Commonly used in sheep concentrates are corn, rice, bran, rice, etc. Appropriate feeding of concentrates to sheep is conducive to sheep growth, so some impatient farmers are accelerating the sheep to increase the speed of the sheep. It causes rumen acidosis in sheep. In addition to long-term overdose of too much silage corn or poor silage will also get the disease.

So what is ruminal acidosis in sheep? What are the symptoms of rumen acidosis in sheep and how should it be treated?

   First, sheep rumen acidosis

Rumen rumen acidosis is mainly caused by rumen acid accumulation caused by feeding the easily fermented acid concentrate or silage acidity, and a systemic metabolic disorder causing acidosis after absorption by sheep.

Second, after feeding too much concentrate, the poisoning performance is:

1. Unwilling to walk, lie down, or want to stand up but fall to the ground;

2, asthma, shortness of breath, rapid heartbeat;

3, ruminant reduction or stop and gaze, conjunctival congestion;

4. Most sheep are thirsty and like to drink water but have little or no urine.

Most sheep have normal body temperature after poisoning, and only a few have elevated body temperature in the early or late stage. As the disease worsens, the sheep is in a coma, because acute acute poisoning is not easy to be detected, and it will die, poison or suffocate in 3-5 hours.

Third, take comprehensive treatment measures for the diseased sheep

1. Intravenous saline or 5% glucose and sodium chloride injection is used to increase the total amount of blood and supplement the electrolyte;

2, intravenous injection of 5% sodium bicarbonate injection to regulate body fluid pH;

3, intramuscular injection of antibiotics, such as penicillin G sodium 40-800,000 units to prevent infection;

4. When the sheep falls to the head, the sedative is injected to calm the sheep;

5. Repeat gastric lavage with warm water.

Fourth, how to prevent rumen acidosis in sheep

The disease should be based on prevention and the need for farmers to do daily management.

1. Feed the concentrate properly. Farmers should reduce or control the amount of grain fed. Each sheep feeds no more than one kilogram of concentrate per day and is divided into three to four times. When starting to increase, it should also gradually increase the concentrate.

2. Feed the silage correctly. Farmers should choose to feed high-quality silage. When the sheep are fasting, they should first feed the silage. The initial feeding will be gradually increased, or the silage and concentrate will be mixed and then fed. Silage fed daily should not exceed 60% of the total diet.

Sheep is a herbivore crude material can increase the rumen's ability to contract. Usually, it should be supplemented with coarse materials and supplemented with concentrate, so as to balance the comprehensive nutrition. Farmers should not be anxious when raising oysters. Only science can feed sheep to grow as fast as possible.
