Heat stress in farm animals can be a serious issue during the summer months. If you suspect that your farm animals are experiencing heat stress, here are some steps you can take to help treat and alleviate the condition:

- Provide Adequate Water
- Create Shade
- Improve Ventilation
- Adjust Feeding Practices
- Wetting the Animals
- Reduce Physical Activity
- Monitor Animals' Behavior
- Seek Veterinary Assistance

Remember that prevention is key in managing heat stress. Implementing proactive measures, such as providing proper shade, ventilation, and access to water, can significantly reduce the risk of heat stress in farm animals!

It's getting hot out there, so keep an eye on your oils. Heat can cause oils, such as corn oil, and even powdered fat-based calorie-boosting products to go rancid within a few days. >>>https://bit.ly/EQSpoiledOil

You can look for many signs of heat stress in your animals.

Some general signs include:
- panting
- increased respiration rate
- increased water intake
- loss of appetite
- listless or lethargy
- increased salivation
- in severe cases may become unconscious

Make sure you are well informed on the signs of heat stress for any species you own and watch them closely during days of extreme heat.

Last weekend we spent another great weekend with Joshua Foster of White Hawk Horsemanship and great clinic attendees at the Horsemanship and Cattle Working Clinic at Ember Ridge Equestrian Center. After a rainy Saturday spent working on rope skills on the ground, the participants were able to work with cattle on Sunday. They started the day learning and practicing horsemanship skills that enabled them to confidently introduce their horses to working the flag, tracking the dummy, roping and herd work with live cattle! Great job to all the participants and horses everyone had a very successful weekend. It was so fun watching everyone learn and enjoy themselves. Thank you for joining us to capture the day 📸

This is what we call the ‘tween’ stage. By now your chicks should have feathers coming in and a pecking order is forming.

During this time continue to:

🧼 Maintain good sanitation practices.
💦 Keep an eye on feeders and waterers – you may need to add some.
