CATDOLL : CATDOLL: How to prevent chickens from getting sick? How to prevent chicks from getting sick?

1. How to prevent chickens from getting sick?

To prevent the occurrence of diseases, disinfect the breeding ground and control the temperature. The following points should be noted when raising chickens in summer:

One is to reduce the stocking density. Chickens are particularly afraid of heat, and the stocking density of chickens should be reduced in time according to the rising temperature.

The second is to change the drinking water frequently. In summer, the water in the chicken feeder is easily heated by the sun. The waterer should be placed in a cool place and the water should be changed frequently. It is best to use pure cool water from underground.

The third is to release the chickens early and pen them late. In summer, the chickens should be released to the playground at daybreak and fed, and then penned after dark to minimize the time the chickens stay in the chicken coop. After the beginning of the dog days, you can also build some wooden racks in the orchard for the chickens to roost, and let the chickens spend the night under the pergola.

Fourth, scientific feeding. In summer, the sunshine time is long, so the feeding frequency should be increased. Feed more in the morning and evening, less at noon, and feed twice a day, with a half-hour interval in between, so as to induce the chickens to increase their appetite.

Fifth, do a good job of epidemic prevention. There are many mosquitoes and flies in summer, which can easily spread diseases. Therefore, we must do a good job of disinfection and epidemic prevention in the chicken house to prevent the occurrence of diseases.

The chicken house should be cleaned once a day and the sand should be frequently placed on the floor. Reduce stress. Chickens are timid and easily frightened, and are very sensitive to changes in the external environment. Therefore, there should be a certain time and sequence for feeding, adding water, picking up eggs, disinfecting, cleaning, and cleaning up feces. Work should be done gently, and strangers and other animals are strictly prohibited from entering the chicken house. You can also add an appropriate amount of multivitamins or other anti-stress drugs to the feed or drinking water to prevent and reduce the losses caused by stress reactions.

2. How to prevent chicks from getting sick?

The core issues are stocking density, feed quality, environmental hygiene, especially drinking water, and common diseases are as follows:

1. Marek's disease

1. Symptoms: Depression, decreased appetite, gradual weight loss, shrinking head and closing eyes, unwilling to move. Tilted head, drooping crop, drooping wings, paralysis. Some have cloudy irises, irregular edges, constricted pupils, or even blindness. A few have skin tumors. Pulling bluish-white feces.

2. Pathological changes: Liver enlargement, with tumors ranging in size from rice grains to peanuts on the surface in severe cases. Splenomegaly. Some patients may have tumors in the kidneys, intestines, lungs, etc. Glandular stomach edema. Some patients may have enlarged nerves in the legs or wings, which may lose their luster.

3. Prevention: The first vaccine should be given within 24 hours after birth, and the second vaccine should be given at 16-18 days. Do not raise the baby in an area where Marek's disease has occurred before 40 days of age.

4. Treatment: There is currently no specific drug treatment, and the best way is immunization at birth.

2. Bursal disease

1. Symptoms: Depression, loose hair, fear of cold, huddling, fever, unstable gait, lying on the ground, often with wings drooping and head and neck touching the ground. Loss of appetite or loss of appetite, increased water intake. Yellowish-white or light-white watery feces, swollen crop. Death occurs soon after onset.

2. Lesions: muscle bleeding, edema and bleeding in the bursa of Fabricius, bleeding spots in the glandular stomach, and pale and swollen kidneys.

3. Prevention: The first vaccine is given at 6-8 days of age, the second vaccine is given at 17-20 days of age, and the third vaccine is given at 30-32 days of age.

4. Treatment: (1) Inject bursal antibodies, 1-1.2 ml for small chickens and 1.2-2.5 ml for medium-sized chickens. (2) Drink Ganshenkang granules and antiviral drug Hudukang for 4-5 days to improve immunity.

3. Chicken Pox

1. Symptoms: Acne will appear on the hairless parts such as the crown, wattles, eye edges, mouth and throat. Due to the influence of acne, symptoms such as loss of spirit, appetite and breathing difficulties will appear. In severe cases, death may occur due to lack of food, water or respiratory suffocation.

2. Prevention: Vaccinate chicken pox vaccine at 7-12 days of age. This disease is more common in summer and autumn, so pay attention to mosquito repellent in the chicken farm.

3. Treatment: Because chicken pox is also a pox virus, you should take the antiviral drug Dubai orally, and use the chicken pox medicine Gedousan together; in addition, use physiological saline to carefully soak the pox scab and peel it off slowly. If it is on the skin, you can apply erythromycin ointment to reduce inflammation after peeling off the pox scab. If it is on the throat, apply iodine glycerin after peeling off the pox scab, twice a day, until it is healed.

4. Chronic respiratory diseases

1. Symptoms: runny nose, sneezing, coughing, difficulty breathing, and tracheal rales. Loss of appetite, growth stagnation, and gradual weight loss. In severe cases, there will be accumulation of exudates in the nostrils, swelling of the eyelids, bulging eyes, and even blindness, and the patient will die of emaciated death.

2. Lesions: The trachea has a rough mucosal membrane, congestion, mucus in the trachea, thickening and turbidity of the airway wall, and infraorbital sinus.

3. Prevention: Inactivated Mycoplasma vaccine can be injected for prevention.

4. Treatment: Antiviral drug Hu Du Kang, respiratory drug Wan Hu Ning, and antibacterial drug Gan Li Ke. Used for four days, it has been tested in the market for a long time and the effect is quite satisfactory.

5. Escherichia coli disease

1. Symptoms: lethargy, head retraction, closed eyes, white or yellow-green loose stools, difficulty breathing, breathing with open mouth, rales, and conjunctival inflammation.

2. Lesions: The liver is enlarged and copper-green in color, with pinhead-sized grayish-white spots, and the surface is covered with peeling grayish-white cellulose membrane. The pericardium is thickened and grayish-white, with increased pericardial fluid, and there is cellulose exudate in the pericardium, and the epicardium is also covered with such exudate. The gas is thickened, rough, and has gray inflammatory exudate attached. The peritoneum is thickened, dull, and has cellulose exudate attached. The intestinal mucosa is swollen and bleeding, and the intestinal contents are thin and often mixed with blood. It is common for hens to have a pale yellowish, fishy liquid and broken egg yolks in the abdominal cavity.

3. Prevention: Escherichia coli is generally a secondary disease. Pay attention to the overall feeding and management of the chicken flock to reduce the incidence of epidemics.

4. Treatment: Penicillin, streptomycin, oxytetracycline, etc. have poor efficacy. Escherichia coli drug Bacillin is highly sensitive to this group of bacteria.

6. Coccidiosis

1. Symptoms: Poor spirit and appetite, afraid of cold and huddling, ruffled feathers, drooping wings, closed eyes. White and bloody feces, even bloody stools. Sick chickens are emaciated, with pale combs and anemia.

2. Lesions: The cecum is significantly swollen, the small intestine is also significantly thickened, and the appearance is brown or dark red. The intestinal mucosa is thickened, congested, bleeding, and the cecum is filled with blood.

3. Prevention: Cutting off the extracorporeal life history of coccidia, such as keeping the chicken house ventilated and dry, maintaining appropriate stocking density, promptly removing feces, and regularly disinfecting the site are effective measures to prevent the occurrence of this disease.

4. Treatment: Sulfonamide drugs have a good effect on the treatment of coccidia, but the dosage must be controlled. Large doses can easily damage the liver and kidneys, so do not use the medicine on your own. Among them, Baiqiulikang has a good effect and contains Chinese medicinal ingredients that protect the liver and kidneys. All breeders can use it with confidence.

When coccidiosis occurs, both medication and feces cleaning must be used simultaneously. Otherwise, a large number of coccidia eggs will mature in the external environment and infect other chickens, making the disease difficult to eradicate.

7. Chicken Plague

Many farmers are afraid of fowl plague. In fact, fowl plague is a common viral disease. Its scientific name is Newcastle disease, which usually manifests as atypical Newcastle disease.

1. Symptoms: Poor spirit, standing alone, head and neck tightened, feathers ruffled, not eating, black crown, blue-white feces, swollen crop, sour and smelly liquid will flow out of the mouth when the sick chicken is turned upside down, difficulty breathing, coughing.

2. Lesions: swelling and bleeding of glandular stomach papillae, bleeding of coronary fat, bleeding of cloaca, swelling and bleeding of cecal tonsils, and bleeding of laryngeal area.

3. Prevention: drip II series seedlings at 7-8 days old, inject I series seedlings at one month old, and inject I series seedlings for the second time at two months old.

4. Treatment: Use the Newcastle disease (fowl plague) drug Dubai in combination with the Escherichia coli drug Bacil. If respiratory symptoms are obvious, use the respiratory drug Wanhuning.

Tips:

The above types are the most common in the breeding process. If the symptoms are not obvious, do not diagnose and use medication on your own.

3. How to prevent cowpea disease?

(1) Select production seeds according to local conditions. Disease-resistant varieties include E-Jiangdou No. 2 (Zaocui). Moderately resistant varieties include Lu 113, Zhizhengtezao 30, Zhijiangtechang 90, Zhijiangaiman No. 1, etc. Nanning Baidoujiao and Jieshang No. 1 are moderately susceptible varieties, while Chengdu Wuyezi and Hongzuiyan are highly susceptible varieties. They should be selected according to local conditions.

(2) Implement crop rotation. Use ridge cultivation or high ridge and deep furrow planting in wetlands. Plant crops at a reasonable density to prevent excessive surface humidity and drain water in a timely manner after rain.

(3) At the early stage of the disease, spray 1500 times diluted 52.5% oxathiapiprolin (Yikuaijing) water dispersible granules or 1000 times diluted 68.75% oxathiapiprolin (Yibao) water dispersible granules, 500 times diluted 50% mancozeb (Junkejing, Xinshuang, Shuangyi Ke, Shuanglike, Nongke, Xinnongling) wettable powder, 800 times diluted 50% carbendazim wettable powder, 600 times diluted 72.2% cymoxanil aqueous solution, 600 times diluted 72% mancozeb (Kelu) wettable powder, 600 times diluted 69% mancozeb (Anke mancozeb) wettable powder, once every 10 days or so.

4. How to prevent hamsters from getting sick?

1. Prepare a comfortable living environment for the hamster. The cage should be spacious and the bottom of the cage should be covered with sawdust.

Although hamsters are small in size, the cage should be as spacious as possible, because hamsters spend a long time in the cage, so they should not feel oppressed by the space and should be given enough space to move around, so that the little hamster can grow happily. Generally, wood chips are placed on the bottom of the cage, which can effectively reduce the odor of the hamster's excrement and keep the cage dry.

2. Prepare all the hamster supplies, such as water dispensers, running wheels, grinding stones, etc.

The best water dispenser for hamsters is an automatic kettle, which should be filled with fresh drinking water, so that the hamster will drink water when thirsty. In addition, it is also necessary to prepare running wheels and mazes for hamsters, as they need sufficient exercise to kill time and exercise their limbs. Grinding stones or grinding sticks should also be prepared in sufficient quantities, otherwise, as a rodent, they will often bite the cage to grind their teeth.

5. How to prevent Huskies from getting sick?

Bathe frequently, pay attention to the hygiene of eating and drinking, don't let it dig into the trash can, eat broken bones, and don't eat too much greasy, sweet, or salty food. Occasionally, you can use eye drops to sterilize.

I also have a husky with blue eyes. He was only three years old, but one of his eyes had keratitis. The next year, the other eye had cataracts. Blue-eyed huskies are prone to eye problems. It's a congenital gene.

6. How to prevent fish in fish ponds from getting sick?

Regular water changes are the best way to prevent fish diseases.

1. Because ammonia nitrogen and nitrite in the water are one of the main causes of fish diseases, regular water changes can help remove these compounds, reduce the degree of water pollution, and help reduce the occurrence of fish diseases.

2. In addition, regular water changes can help increase the oxygen content in the water, promote the respiration and metabolism of fish, enhance the immunity of fish, and make them healthier.

In addition, the fish pond needs to be cleaned regularly to prevent the accumulation of fallen leaves and weeds from becoming sources of disease.

7. How to prevent Yuanbao pigeons from getting sick?

Yuanbao pigeon is an introduced breed of meat pigeon. This pigeon has a large body. An adult Yuanbao pigeon can grow to a weight of about 3 kilograms. Due to their heavy bodies, they cannot fly and can only be raised like chickens. Yuanbao pigeons, like homing pigeons and other pigeon breeds, need to be regularly vaccinated with various vaccines to prevent diseases such as Newcastle disease. Various parasites in the respiratory tract and intestines must be cleaned regularly to ensure the health of the pigeons.

8. How to prevent free-range rabbits from getting sick?

Preventing rabbit diseases means taking effective measures to prevent uninfected rabbits from getting sick. To this end, the following aspects must be done well:

First, scientific feeding and management should be carried out, feed should be properly formulated, attention should be paid to supplementing vitamins and essential mineral elements, the rabbit house and environment should be kept clean and hygienic, feeding tools, cages, farrowing boxes, etc. should be disinfected regularly, and dead rabbits should be handled promptly and safely.

The second is to vaccinate rabbits with rabbit vaccines in a timely manner, and add certain antibiotics and sulfonamides to the feed when necessary to improve the rabbits' disease resistance.

Third, it is necessary to formulate strict disinfection and epidemic prevention systems and specific measures to protect the rabbit population from infection by diseases and prevent them from happening.

Fourth, prevent rabbits from accidentally ingesting toxic substances, do not feed them green fodder contaminated by pesticides and moldy and spoiled feed, and use anthelmintics and other drugs correctly.

9. How to prevent guppies from getting sick?

Here’s how:

1. Stabilize the water temperature. The water temperature where needle tail disease occurs is not very high, generally below 26 degrees, so we need to control the water temperature at 29-30 degrees. The difference between water temperature of 26 degrees and 30 degrees is huge. You can feel the obvious difference by testing the water with your hand. The activity and feeding speed of the fish are also obviously different. The fry at 30 degrees water temperature obviously increase their food intake, have a lot of activity, and have stronger immunity. If the temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the temperature in the fish tank is large, do not add oxygen, as cold air can easily cause needle tail disease.

2. Stabilize the water quality. The density of fry should not be too large. Generally speaking, the maximum number of fry in a 30cm×30cm×30cm fish tank is 50, which is equivalent to the number of fry in a nest. When there are a lot of leftover bait and feces, just pump them out. It is best to use old water or water that has been air-dried for more than 5 days. Do not add a large amount of new water. Keep the temperature of the water in the tank balanced. When storing water, avoid water flow impacting the body of the fry.

10. How to prevent koi fish from getting sick?

Preventive measures are very important, which can prevent Koi fish from getting sick. Keeping water clean is the key to preventing Koi fish from getting sick. Clean water can reduce the impact of pathogens and chemical pollutants. In addition, the Koi fish should be kept dry and ventilated to avoid the influence of environmental factors such as high or low temperature and excessive humidity. At the same time, different types of Koi fish feed are also different. Reasonable feed matching is an important means of preventing disease. Extended content: In addition, when Koi fish are sick, they must be diagnosed and treated in time. You can consult fish doctors or relevant professionals for timely treatment measures or use fish farming books or relevant information on the Internet to understand disease prevention methods.
