Ruminants have a very high salivary pH, making it difficult to get an accurate rumen pH from passing an oro- or nasogastric tube. Rumenocentesis is a simple procedure that is performed by tapping the ventral sac of the rumen just cranial to the stifle to get pure, unadulterated rumen fluid for analysis.

There's a lot of flooding in the country now and it gave me a flashback to several years ago when the Brazos River got way out of its bounds and flooded many areas, including areas around Houston. I had 2 camel patients outside of Houston that stood in floodwaters for several days and this is what happened. Thanks to a dedicated herdsman and a plan that included probably 3 metric tons of SSD, we got them both healed up. Floodwaters are contaminated from up river and that plus the skin maceration from standing in water can cause severe damage. We were so lucky to get these guys healed up.

Last week, I asked you how you are managing the Biblical plague of flies we have going this year and mentioned dealing with some pinkeye in my own cattle. What are your pinkeye magic tricks? I love third eyelid flaps for my moderate to severe cases. Check out all my tips and tricks for pinkeye in cattle at LargeAnimalCE.com Course 42! I talk about how evaluate lesions for being active or not, how I treat varying degrees of pinkeye severity, the evidence for vaccines and prevention and control.

Once upon a time, I had a cria that presented for just not growing as fast as expected. Exam and bloodwork totally normal. I saw him several times and he was always normal when I would evaluate him. Then, he had a seizure and then was totally normal again. He continued to deteriorate and fortunately we were able to perform a necropsy and found this massive brain abscess. These have been reported in camelid cria with a variety of bugs, including E. coli. I have always marveled at how animals can appear so normal with such massive lesions.

"I can do it on my own." Yes, you can.

But how does it feel?

Are you able to walk away with total confidence that you did everything you could for that case?

Do you sometimes feel unsettled after a bumpy client conversation?

Do you wonder where to go to get the information you need to be sure you're totally up to date?

Would you feel more comfortable asking questions and discussing these things with someone outside of your practice?

Well, that's what I believe is my purpose here on the planet.

Click on Work with Dr. Jones at DrMeredythJones.com and let's chat about what support you need and let's get it for you! I would be honored to walk alongside of you for 3 months and help you reach your goals!
