Spring is a good season for raising sheep, especially in rural areas where grass is fed everywhere. Not only is it convenient to raise, but it can also reduce breeding costs. But be careful not to let the sheep's feed suddenly turn into a lot of grass, because the sheep needs to adapt gradually from eating hay to grass, otherwise it is easy to cause diarrhea due to gastrointestinal incompatibility. When raising sheep in spring, we must pay attention to the prevention of sheep diarrhea, which can effectively reduce the incidence.

　　 1. Reasons why sheep are prone to diarrhea in spring:

　　 1. Sudden change from eating hay to eating green grass is a common cause of diarrhea in sheep.

　　2. In addition, when the sheep is exposed to the rain, eats too much rain-drenched grass, or eats too much unclean forage, it will cause diarrhea in the sheep.

　　3. In terms of feeding, unreasonable feed combination, such as excessive pellet feed and concentrated feed, can also cause diarrhea in sheep.

　　4. Also, when the sheep is weak, especially when the stomach is poor, eating a little inappropriate food can easily cause diarrhea.

　　 5. There is another situation, which is the disease factor. When sheep are infected with parasites or some bacterial diseases, diarrhea may also occur.

In short, the main reason why sheep are prone to diarrhea in spring is the same as mentioned above. After eating hay for a winter and suddenly changing to green grass, the stomach becomes unsuitable and diarrhea; and the grazing sheep in spring eat grass or grass with rain. Eating too much grass is also a common cause of diarrhea in sheep.

　　 2. Preventive measures for sheep diarrhea:

　　 When we understand the reasons why sheep are prone to diarrhea in spring, then it is much easier to prevent sheep diarrhea. Because we know where to start. But here is a brief introduction to everyone:

　　 1. Sheep that have eaten hay for a winter, do not change suddenly when eating green grass after entering spring. You should still eat more hay and less green grass at the beginning, and then slowly reduce the amount of hay fed, and increasing the amount of grass fed requires a process of slowly changing, so that the stomach of the sheep can be improved. Can adapt slowly. Another point to note is that in the future, the amount of grass fed to the sheep should also be properly controlled.

　　2. Ensure that the feed supply is nutritionally balanced, and while eating grass, it must also be matched with suitable hay or concentrate, which can not only balance the nutrition of the sheep, but also avoid the resulting diarrhea.

　　3. The sheep feed should be clean and hygienic. The grass should be free of rain and not eat wet pasture. This is also very important.

　　4. In the usual process of raising sheep, strengthen feeding and management, pay attention to observe the health of the flock, and promptly diagnose and treat sick sheep if they are found to avoid diarrhea caused by disease.

　　 3. What should I do if I encounter sheep diarrhea?

　　 Sheep diarrhea is found, the cause should be found first, and then the corresponding solution should be selected.

　　 1. Reasonable adjustments should be made to the feeding management caused by feeding and management factors. After diarrhea occurs, the sheep can be treated with gentamicin.

　　2. For sheep diarrhea caused by disease factors, it is also necessary to find the cause of the disease and treat the disease symptomatically. The diarrhea will naturally heal after treatment. Of course, if it is necessary to treat diarrhea at the same time, it can be treated with medicine at the same time.
