Sheep coccidiosis is a disease with emaciation as the main symptom caused by coccidia parasitic in sheep intestines. Let's learn about the symptoms of sheep coccidiosis and what medicine is effective for sheep coccidiosis.
What are the symptoms of sheep coccidiosis?
Adult sheep are not infected, and lambs aged 2 ~ 6 months are prone to disease. Sick sheep have listlessness, loss of appetite or disappearance, increased thirst, rough hair, pale and visible teaching membrane, diarrhea, and feces are often mixed with blood, shed membrane and epithelium, which has a stench and contains a large number of oocysts.
Second, what medicine does sheep coccidiosis take?
1, apramylin: 145mg/kg body weight mixed feeding every day for 2 ~ 3 weeks, the control is effective.
2. Salinomycin: 0.33 ~ 1 mg per kilogram of body weight every day, effective after continuous feeding for 2 ~ 3 weeks.
3, sulfadimethoxine: 50 ~ 100 mg per kilogram of body weight every day for 3 ~ 5 days, effective for acute cases.
4, sulfadimethoxine: sulfadimethoxine ten synergist (tmp) is taken daily at the ratio of 5: 1, 0. 1 g per kilogram of body weight for two days, which has therapeutic effect.
Third, the development history and epidemic characteristics of sheep coccidiosis
The diseased oocysts are excreted with sheep manure and develop under suitable conditions. After several days of incubation, vesicles and bags are formed, which pollute feed, forage and drinking water, are eaten by sheep, selected from robes in the intestine, and drilled into intestinal epithelial cells to form merozoites and merozoites.
Later, after several generations, a large gamete and a small gamete were formed, and the large gamete and the small gamete combined to form a zygote. The secretion of the zygote formed a capsule, that is, it became the ovum meridian, which was discharged with feces. All kinds of sheep are easy to be infected with coccidia, and lambs are also easy to be infected and sometimes even die.
4. How to diagnose and prevent sheep coccidiosis can be diagnosed according to epidemiology, clinical symptoms and finding a large number of oocysts in stool examination.
To prevent sheep coccidiosis, we should strengthen feeding management and do a good job in disinfection of sheepfolds, environment and utensils. Adult sheep and lambs are best raised and managed in groups. Prevention of routine drug aggregation.
