10 FUN FACTS ABOUT :

The reason bees are so noisy is because they beat their wings 11,400 times in one minute!

Only female bees can sting. Male bees don’t have stingers.

Honey bees communicate through a series of dance moves.

A hive of bees will fly over 55,000 miles to make 1lb of honey and can create 100lbs of honey in a year.

Bees can sense the hormone a human gives off when they’re scared. If they feel their hive is threatened they’ll attack.

The Honey Bee is the only insect that makes food man can eat.

Each Honey Bee from the same hive has their own specific color identification.

The Ancient Egyptian King Pepy II came up with a clever insect repellent. He would cover a slave completely with honey so they would be attracted to the honey and not him.

Eating honey makes you smarter! It has an antioxidant that improves brain functions.

1 bee has 5 eyes!

Actinobacillosis, more commonly known as ‘Wooden Tongue’, is caused by the bacterium , which is commonly found in the and is a normal inhabitant of the bovine mouth. The bacteria can pe*****te the skin or mucous membranes through cuts or caused by coarse feed, traumatic injury etc. It is usually seen as sporadic cases, but some herds have a more frequent occurrence of the disease.


Inflammation of the gums

Hard, tongue which may protrude from the mouth

mouth

Dropping of food due to inability of the tongue to move properly

Formation of granulomas (soft tissue areas of inflammation) on other parts of the body due to spread of infection to the skin

Enlarged or infected lymph nodes of the head and neck

and/or weight loss due to inability to eat properly


If treatment is started during the early stage of disease, it can be very successful. (penicillins or tetracyclines) are appropriate. Intravenous sodium iodide given on days 0, 7 and 28, can be beneficial. Prognosis is good if disease is identified and treated early. Once the disease progresses to chronic, the prognosis becomes poor.

occurs when the bovine uterus protrudes after . It is most common in dairy cattle and can occur in beef cows occasionally with .It is not as commonly seen in heifers, but occasionally can be seen in dairy heifers

Uterine prolapse is considered a that puts the cow at risk of shock or death by blood loss.Factors during calving that increase the risk of uterine prolapse include: calving complications that cause injury or irritation of the external birth canal, severe straining during , and excessive pressure when a calf is manually extracted.

Non-calving factors include nutrition problems such as low blood calcium, magnesium, protein, or generally poor body conditions.In a complete uterine prolapse, the uterine horns also come out. When this happens, the uterus will hang below the hocks of the animal.When the uterus hangs below the hocks, the cow may lie on, step on or kick the exposed tissue, which increases the risk of rupturing a major artery.The uterus can become easily infected as it bruises easily and can become covered with manure.
Uterine prolapse occurs after calving when the is open and the uterus lacks tone. It occurs most commonly in the hours after calving, but may also occur up to a week later.

When the uterine prolapse does not occur directly after calving, it can be more for the cow. It is most likely that during , the uterus was slightly everted, which suggests that the prolapse did not take place until after the calf was born .In these cases, the uterus is more likely to be infected. This increases the possibility that the uterus cannot be replaced in the animal, and must instead be removed.


There is no way to completely prevent uterine prolapse. To reduce the risk, cows are returned to a standing position and encouraged to move around as soon as possible after calving. This is especially important in cases where a calf is pulled to assist the mother. When the cow stands, the uterus normally drops back into the abdominal cavity, which straightens out the uterine horns.

●Watch for activity. If a cow is not coming back into heat after approximately 21 days, nor is showing any signs heat activity any time between day 21 to day 45 post-breeding (or even an estimated breeding date if you weren't there to see it happen), then it's likely that she has been successfully settled

●Study the of the . If the bull is not paying any to a that has since gone out of , and continues to not pay any attention to her when you suspect she should be coming into heat about 18 to 24 days later, then it's very likely that that cow has been bred.

●Look for the . This is probably the one of the best ways to tell if a cow has been bred: A , or a tail that is held out in an odd angle than normal, will be displayed by the cow or heifer for about 24 to 48 hours after being by the bull.It is one of the best ways because you can determine almost the day that a cow has been serviced. If you're one or two days off, that is not a problem.

●Look for , mud or bare patches over the 's hindquarters. Also an indication of mating and estrus activity, it is another useful way to see if a cow has been serviced or not.

These characteristics should be used to note breeding activity, but only if there is a breeding bull with the females. The raised patches only indicate that a cow or heifer is in heat

●Look for from the ***a. A female that has recently been bred by the herd bull--often within an hour or so--will usually have come from her v***a. This would be seminal fluid from the bull, as often not all the semen that is ej******ed into the cow or heifer makes it through the into the ; almost half of it is excreted back out again.

●The . The most obvious indicator that a cow has been bred if you just caught the sight of your and ej*******ng into one of your cows. The whole event, as it can be called, only takes a matter of a few seconds, so if you're able to see it, then consider yourself lucky. Usually a bull will mate with a cow once, but it's not uncommon if it's done several times, especially if she has garnered the attention of more than one.

《CHRONIC RESPIRATORY DISEASE》 ( )

♧♧♧♧♧♧

is a disease, caused by . M. Gallisepticum causes a Respiratory disease, affecting the entire Respiratory tract, particularly the airsacs where it localizes. All may be involved because cloudy in appearance and filled with mucus. In the later stages , mucus develops a yellow colour and cheesy consistency.

M.gallisepticum infection is extremely important both in and . While it's not a great killer. Affected laying flocks have been shown to produce as many as 20 fewer eggs per year than normal flocks. Also it is an important egg-transmitted disease.

The disease is by abnormal Respiratory sounds, coughing and nasal discharge. Symptoms are usually slow to develop and the disease has along course. Complicated CRD ( ) , also known as airsac disease is a severe airsacculitis, which occurs when M. Gallisepticum infection gets complicated by E.coli and some Respiratory virus infections.

●CRD through the following ways

-Infection is usually transmitted through the hatching egg. This is the major means of spread.

-carrier birds 🐦 are responsible for transmitting the disease. Direct contact of susceptible birds 🐦 with the infected carrier chickens causes outbreaks of the disease

- spread may also occur by contaminated dust, droplets or feathers 🪶 carried through the air.

- People are important carriers.

●The major symptoms may include

1. In adult flocks symptoms include abnormal Respiratory sounds, nasal discharge, sneezing, coughing, and breathing through the open beak. Feed consumption is reduced and birds 🐦 lose weight

2. In laying flocks, egg Production 🥚 decreases , and the disease is usually more severe during winter.

3. In young chicks there is rattling, sneezing, and sniffing, all indicative of a respiratory difficulty.

4. In broilers, most out breaks occur between 2 to 5 weeks of age

5. However, the appearance of disease depends, as already mentioned, on the presence at the same time of other disease-producing organisms, or stress factors. Uncomplicated infections usually cause no symptoms or cause mortality only in the very young.

*NOTE*
Treatment is only a temporary solution and is usually quite expensive. Removal of infection is the most satisfactory means of control.

Since M.gallisepticum is transmitted through eggs 🥚, maintaining chicken flocks free of M.gallisepticum is only possible by obtaining replacement flocks that are known to be free of the infection, and rearing them in strict isolation to avoid Introduction of the disease..

is a , short- or longterm, usually disease of the horse family caused by the bacterium . The disease is characterized by the development of ulcerating growths that are most commonly found in the upper respiratory tract, lungs, and skin.

Common of glanders include fever with chills and sweating, muscle aches, chest pain, muscle tightness, and headache. Additional symptoms may include excessive tearing of the eyes, light sensitivity, ulcers, and diarrhea (loose stool/poop). Symptoms can develop 1 to 5 days after infection.

is a highly and often fatal disease, primarily of solipds. In the developed world, glanders has been eradicated.


Glanders is transmitted primarily via infectious liquids (exudate) (nasal discharge, pus) from infected animals,
The bacteria can also easily be transmitted via contaminated feed or water, or by contact with contaminated objects, such as saddles, riding tack or grooming materials, such as brushes.

HamzaVeterinaryClinic
Mastitis is the inflammation of the mammary gland and udder tissue.

It usually occurs as an immune response to bacterial invasion of the teat canal by variety of bacterial sources present on the farm (commonly through bedding or contaminated teat dips), and can also occur as a result of chemical, mechanical, or thermal injury to the cow's udder.

Mastitis is a multifactoral disease, closely related to the production system and environment that cows are kept in. Mastitis risk factors or disease determinants can be classified into three groups: host, pathogen and environmental determinants.

Symptoms

Subclinical: Few symptoms of subclinical mastitis appear, although it is present in most dairy herds.

Somatic cell counts measure milk quality and can be used as an indicator of mastitis prevalence.

Clinical mastitis: The most obvious symptoms of clinical mastitis in the udder are swelling, heat, hardness, redness or pain.

Milk takes on a watery appearance, flakes, clots or pus is often present.

A reduction in milk yields, increases in body temperature, lack of appetite, and a reduction in mobility due to the pain of a swollen udder are also common signs.

Treatment

NSAID are widely used for the treatment of acute mastitis. Aspirin, flunixin meglumine, flurbiprofen, carprofen, ibuprofen, and ketoprofen have been studied as treatments for experimental coliform mastitis or endotoxin-induced mastitis. Orally administered aspirin should be used with caution in acute coliform mastitis because it may lead to severe rumen atony.

Prevention

Hygienic teat management: which includes good housing management, effective teat preparation and disinfection for good milk hygiene, teat health and disease control.

Prompt identification and treatment of clinical mastitis cases: including the use of the most appropriate treatment for the symptoms.

Dry cow management and therapy: where cows are dried off abruptly and teats are cleaned scrupulously before dry cow antibiotics are administered, including the use of teat-end sealants if appropriate.

Culling chronically affected cows: cows that become impossible to cure and represent a reservoir of infection for the whole herd.

Regular testing and maintenance of the milking machine: with regular, recommended teatcup liner replacement and milking machine servicing and attention paid to items which must be checked on a daily, weekly or monthly basis.

Good record keeping: of all aspects of mastitis treatment, dry cow therapy, milking machine servicing, Somatic Cell Counts and Bactoscan results, and clinical mastitis cases.

Worms are the main enemy of dairy animals. Gut of animals is a habitat for them. They suck blood from gut and survive and multipied in thousands. Thus, a great loss in terms of milk production, health and reproductive efficiency of animals a farmer has to bear. As per science, it should be kept below 2.5%. We had adopted Mass Deworming Practice since the year 2002 and as a result worm load is reduced to 2.5% from 12%. We are feeding an anthelmintic drug to our majority of animals(90% coverage) in a couple of days. A pilot study was carried out to estimate milk production hike after feeding of this drug. It was increased at the tune of 5% in the year 2002 ( inception year). Hence, that hike is being restored by mass deworming every year.

Anthrax

Anthrax is a bacterial disease of animals, most commonly seen in cattle, sheep and goats. Anthrax is usually transmitted by feed and water contaminated with spores, which can last in soil for many years. The primary sign of anthrax in grazing animals is sudden death, often with bloody discharges. Humans can be affected, usually by infection of open sores when handling infected carcasses, but anthrax can be fatal if the bacteria are ingested or inhaled.

Anthrax is a reportable disease and anyone who suspects animals have anthrax must notify the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development.

Cause of anthrax

Anthrax is caused by the bacterium Bacillus anthracis, the spores of which can remain viable in soil for up to 50 years and up to 200 years in bones of animals that have died of anthrax. Outbreaks often follow soil disturbance or major weather events such as heavy rain or prolonged drought.

Species affected

Anthrax affects many livestock species including cattle, sheep, horses, pigs and goats. Dogs can also be infected.

Disease spread

In grazing animals, anthrax is usually spread by contact with spores in the soil or on pastures. Spread by direct contact between infected animals or by inhalation is rare.

Diagnosis/what to look for

sudden drop in milk production

red-stained milk or urine

weakness and staggering, rapidly worsening

sudden death

bloody or tarry discharge from mouth, nose or a**s of dead animals

colic and/or diarrhoea in horses

throat swelling with drowsiness in pigs and

🏥 #رانی #کھیت (N.D) اور #سبز #بیٹھ کا علاج 🏥
👈 شیڈ کی صفائی کا نہ ہونا • لوگوں کا شیڈ میں آنا جانا • ڈس انفیکشن سپرے کا نہ کرنا ہر مہینے • ہوا میں نمی کا تناسب ٹھیک نہ رکھنا ان سب کی وجہ سے یہ بیماری آجاتی ہے اور اگر بروقت شیڈول کے مطابق ویکسین نہ کی جائے تو تمام فلاک ختم ہونے کا خدشہ رہتا ہے۔ احتیاط علاج سے بہتر ہے۔

👈 ویکسینیشن سے قبل ایک دن پہلے امیونٹی بوسٹر اور پروٹینز اور کیلشیم لازمی کھلائیں پلائیں۔ کوئی اینٹی با ئیوٹک نہ پلائیں۔ اگر کوئی برڈ بیمار ہے کسی اور بیماری سے تو اسکا پہلے علاج کریں۔ اور سب سے علیحدہ رکھیں۔

#علامات:-
* جانور کا سست ہوجانا
* کھانا پینا روک دینا
* لقوہ، وٹامن بی کی کمی
* سبز رنگ کی بیٹھیں کرنا
* گردن کا مڑ جانا
* برڈ کے پر اور دم ڈھیلی چھوڑ دینا

#علاج:-
1- بینزائل پینسیلین انجیکشن 10 لاکھ (Benzyl penicillin)
2- نیوروبیان انجیکشن (Neurobion)

👈 بینزائل پینسیلین انجیکشن 10 لاکھ میں نیوروبیان انجیکشن تمام مکس کریں اور پھر ہلایں اچھے سے۔
اب 4 سی سی پلس محلول جو تیار ہوا ہے اسے 5 سی سی سرنج میں بھر لیں۔ ہاف ٹیکہ برڈ کو لگا دیں۔ لگاتے وقت احتیاط کرنی ہے کے انجیکشن گوشت میں لگے۔
چییسٹ،ران،بازو کے گوشت میں لگائیں، اور ہاف ٹیکہ اسے پلادیں آرام آرام سے۔

👈 یہی عمل شام میں بھی کریں یا 12 گھنٹے بعد دوہرائیں۔ دوسری ڈوز ای کافی ہوگی اور برڈ ٹھیک ہو جائے گا۔ اگر کچھ اثرات باقی ہوں تو بینزائل پینسیلین انجیکشن 10 لاکھ میں ابال کیا ہوا پانی تازہ کرکے مکس کریں۔ اور 3 سی سی پلائیں۔ بہتر ہو جائے گا برڈ۔

#نوٹ:-
برڈ اگر درمیانہ ہے تو تمام انجیکشن آدھے آدھے لگانے اور پلانے ہیں 12 گھنٹے وقفے سے۔

Dr. Hamza Veterinary Clinic
🐄🐄
_______________
Bloat is an over distention of the rumen and reticulum with the gases of fermentation.Tympany is caused by a physical or functional obstruction or stenosis of esophagus resulting in failure to eructate .

In adult animals, free-gas bloat is less frequent and usually more acute because disturbances of the adult rumen tend to be more rapid and severe .Prodigious volumes of gas are continually generated in the rumen through the process of microbial fermentation. Normally, the bulk of this gas is eliminated by eructation or belching, which ruminants are spend a lot of time doing. Certainly, anything that interferes with eructation will cause major problems for a ruminant. The problem, of course, is called ruminal tympany or, simply, bloatBloat is the overdistension of the rumen and reticulum with gases derived from fermentation. The disorder is perhaps most commonly seen in cattle, but certainly is not uncommon in sheep and goats.

Clinical Signs.
_______________
2There is discomfort and the animal may stand and lie down frequently, kick at its abdomen and even roll.
3. Frequent defecation and urination are common.
4. Dyspnea is marked and is accompanied by mouth breathing, protrusion of the tongue, salivation and extension of the head.
5. The respiratory rate is increased up to 60/min.
6. Ruminal contractions are usually increased in strength and frequency in the early stages and may be almost continuous,

Treatment and Control
_______________________
Bloat is a life threatening condition and must be relieved with haste. For animals in severe distress, rumen gas should be released immediately by emergency rumenotomy. Insertion of a rumen trochar through the left flank into rumen is sometimes advocated, but usually not very effective unless it has a large bore (i.e. 1 inch), and is often followed by complications such as peritonitis.
In less severe cases, a large bore stomach tube should be passed down the esophagus into the rumen. Free gas will readily flow out the tube, although it may need to be repositioned repeatedly to effectively relieve the pressure. In the case of frothy bloat, antifoaming medications can be delivered directly into the rumen through the tube; the animal should then be closely observed to insure that the treatment is effective and the animal begins to belch gas, otherwise a rumenotomy may be indicated.
