There are many factors that contribute to mortality in neonatal kids. Diarrhea in goat kid is the single major cause of death in neonatal kids. Diarrhea in animal caused by Bacteria (Escherichia coli, salmonella, clostridium perfringens, Yersinia), Virus ( Rotavirus, Coronavirus, adenovirus, Herpes virus, Morbillivirus) and Parasites ( Cryptosporidium, Eimeria, Entamoeba, Giardia, Strongyloides, Trichostronylus, Amphistomes)
The four major causes of Diarrhea in the kids during the first month of life are Colibacillosis, rotavirus infection, salmonellosis, and cryptosporidiosis. Out of them, colibacillosis (E Coli scours) is the most common bacterial diarrhea while in the viral agent’s Rotavirus is the most common.
Cryptosporidium is the main culprit in the parasitic agent associated with diarrhea in neonatal kids.
Despite improvements in management practices and prevention treatment strategies, diarrhea is still the most common and the most costly disease in goats, affecting neonatal small ruminants.
Indiscriminate use of antibiotics is making bacterial agents resistant to common antibiotics. Apart from antibiotic resistance, there is little or no time to figure out acute forms of colibacillosis as well as rotavirus infection and to take steps to save the kids.
3 factors of Diarrhea in newborn goat kid
#1 Kid Factor
Infectious disease and parasitic disease: colibacillosis (ETEC E Coli), PPR, salmonellosis, Pneumonia, Rotavirus, FMD, clostridium perfringens, contagious ecthyma, Tetanus, cryptosporidium parvum, coccidiosis, Moniziasis.
Non-infectious cause: Low Birth weight, premature birth, Hypothermia, and hypoglycemia syndrome, trace element deficiencies (Cu, Iodine, Se)
#2 Mother factor
Low milk production syndrome associated with metabolic disease (Hypocalcaemia, pregnancy toxaemia), Mastitis etc.
#3 Management Factor
Low colostrum or milk feeding, sanitation and hygiene, rearing practices, shelter management, Judicious and timely prophylactic measures, breeding management, Nutrition and feeding practices, etc.
Neonatal mortality is vital to the economic goat husbandry and is critical for the fast growth of small ruminants in the world. Several studies have shown that on an average 20% of the kids are lost every year. Based on this mortality rate, the estimated total deaths would be around 10-12 million of kids each year.
Diarrhea in goat kid by Colibacillosis
Diarrhea particularly during the first few weeks after birth is an important ailment that is responsible for high mortality in neonates of most animal species.
Diarrhea is documented as a very frequent cause of kid mortality throughout the world. Colibacillosis is a disease of very young animals usually 2-10 days old. The bacterium Escherichia coli (E.coli) is an important causative agent.
This is common inhabitants of the gastrointestinal tract in both non-pathogenic and pathogenic forms. Pathogenic serotype, however, some of these are capable of gaining entrance to the body (septicemic from) through the intestinal wall, others remain in the intestinal tract and liberate a toxin which is absorbed by the body and cause generalized disease and diarrhea entheogenic form.
The common signs are anorexia, loss or decreased appetite, off feed, bloody stools, feces, hematochezia, ataxia, incoordination, staggering, falling, dehydration, fever, etc.
There are a number of Escherichia coli strains that have been identified and characterized in animals.
Colibacillosis is managed by administration of antibiotics preferably both oral and systemic, rehydration therapy, prebiotic and probiotic therapy, hygienic drinking water supply, environmental sanitation, etc.
Diarrhea in goat kid by Salmonellosis
Most species of the genus salmonella are capable of producing diarrhea in goat kid but salmonella typhimurium is the most common serovar of the genus. In salmonellosis, the kids less than 1 week of age are more likely to die without clinical signs, whereas animals older than one week of age are more likely to have diarrhea. This can be damaged by antibiotics. The bacteria salmonella have thousands of serotypes and all can potentially cause diarrhea in animals. Vaccination has not been thoroughly evaluated in sheep and goats.
Diarrhea in goat Kid by Cryptosporidiosis
cryptosporidiosis, caused by cryptosporidium parvum is primarily a disease of lambs and kids less than 30 days of age and is usually a milder disease than coccidiosis. Infective oocysts are passed in feces and are transmitted by oral ingestion. Duration of diarrhea in goats tends to be a few days longer than is seen in diarrhea caused by rotavirus, coronavirus, or enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli.
Feces are yellow or pale, watery, and contain mucus. In most cases, diarrhea is self-limiting after several days.
Paromycin sulfate 100 mg/kg for 11 days from the second day of age proves successful in preventing natural disease in a controlled clinical field trial in goat kids.
Diarrhea in Goat kid by Rotavirus and coronavirus gastroenteritis
Lambs and kids are infected with a group of B rotavirus, whereas most other animals and humans have infected with group A rotavirus. This virus generally causes diarrhea in goat kids 2 to 14 days of age.
Young animals become very depressed and dehydrated. Treatment with supportive care. Vaccinating ewes and does with bovine rotavirus and coronavirus vaccine before they give birth will increase passive immunity. Generally, viruses tend to less a cause of diarrhea in lambs and kids than calves.
Diarrhea in Goat kid by clostridium perfringens
Enterotoxaemia can kill goats and sheep of all ages but usually kills only those that consume high levels of carbohydrates. Clostridium perfringens type D. one type of bacteria that causes enterotoxemia, is most prevalent associated with sudden death, occasional pushing and staggering, apparent blindness in growing kids.
Clostridium perfringens type C causes a type of enterotoxemia that usually is accompanied by bloody scours.Mortality may be high. It usually occurs among fast gaining kids during the first three weeks. Pregnant goats vaccinated three four weeks before kidding provide antibody protection in their milk.
Soda bicarbonate french is effective. For an outbreak, vaccinate with type D toxoid on day 1 and gain 12 -14 days later, de-worm and reduce grain until the vaccine takes effect.
Prior vaccination and treatment is better than cure in case of diarrhea in goats kids. The colostrum feeding on time provides immunity and generates antibodies in kids. Sanitation around new born kids also plays a major role in neonatal diarrhea in kids, do all this thing we discussed above helps you manage the health and survival of goat kids.
Kuna mambo mengi yanayochangia vifo vya watoto wachanga. Kuvuja kwa tumbo kwa mbuzi ni kisababishi kikuu cha vifo vya watoto wachanga. Ugonjwa wa kuhara kwa watoto wa miezi mitatu na chini (E. coli, Salmonella, Clostridium perfringens, Yersinia, Rotavirus, Adenovirus, Herpes, Morbidivirus, E. coli, E. coli, E. coli, E. coli, E. coli, E. coli, E. coli) ni moja ya sababu kuu za kuhara kwa watoto wa miezi mitatu na chini (Coli-bacillus, Rotavirus, Salmonella, C. coli, C. coli, C. coli). Kati yao, colibacillosis (E. Coli scours) ni kuhara kwa bakteria ya kawaida wakati katika maambukizi ya virusi Rotavirus ni ya kawaida zaidi. Cryptosporidium ni mhalifu mkuu katika wakala wa vimelea unaohusishwa na kuhara kwa watoto wachanga. Licha ya maboresho katika mbinu za usimamizi na mikakati ya matibabu ya kuzuia, kuhara bado ni ugonjwa wa kawaida na wa gharama kubwa zaidi katika mbuzi, unaowathirika wanyama wadogo wa nywele. Matumizi yasiyo ya busara ya viuavijasumu yanafanya viini viwe na uwezo wa kukinza viuavijasumu vya kawaida. "Kupitia uchunguzi wa maambukizi ya virusi vya corona, kuna ""wakati mdogo wa kugundua aina kali za colibacillosis na maambukizi ya rotavirus na kuchukua hatua za kuwaokoa watoto.""" Vipimo vya Ugonjwa wa Mkojo katika Mbuzi: Ugonjwa wa Colibacillus (ETEC E. coli), Salmonella, Pneumonia, Rotavirus, Malaria, Clostridium perfringens, Tetanus, Cryptosporidium parviensis, Coccidiosis, Mononucleosis. Ugonjwa wa uzazi wa chini, kuzaliwa mapema, hypoglycemia, upungufu wa madini ya msingi (Iodine, Ca, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C, C) ni dalili za ugonjwa wa uzazi wa chini wa maziwa (Hypocalcemia, Toxemia ya ujauzito, Mastitis, na mengineyo). #3: Ufugaji wa colostrum au maziwa ya chini, usafi wa mazingira na usafi, mazoea ya ufugaji, usimamizi wa makazi, hatua za kuzuia za busara na za wakati, usimamizi wa uzazi, lishe na mazoea ya kulisha, nk. Kiwango cha vifo vya watoto wachanga ni muhimu kwa uzalishaji wa mbuzi na ni muhimu kwa ukuaji wa haraka wa wanyama wadogo wa kutafuna duniani. Uchunguzi unaonyesha kuwa kwa wastani, asilimia 20 ya watoto wanaokufa kila mwaka. Kwa kuzingatia kiwango hiki cha vifo, jumla ya vifo inakadiriwa kuwa karibu watoto milioni 10-12 kila mwaka. Ugonjwa wa kuhara kwa mbuzi kwa sababu ya colibacillosis, hasa katika wiki chache za kwanza baada ya kuzaliwa, ni ugonjwa muhimu ambao unahusika na vifo vya watoto wachanga wa aina nyingi za wanyama. Kuvuja damu ni moja ya sababu za kawaida za vifo vya watoto duniani kote. Colibacillosis ni ugonjwa wa wanyama wadogo sana, kwa kawaida wenye umri wa siku mbili hadi kumi. Bakteria Escherichia coli (E. coli) ni kichocheo muhimu. Hii ni wakazi wa kawaida wa njia ya gastrointestinal katika aina zote mbili zisizo za pathogenic na pathogenic. Serotype ya pathogenic: Baadhi ya hizi zinaweza kuingia kwenye mwili (kutoka kwa septicemia) kupitia ukuta wa matumbo, wengine hubaki katika njia ya matumbo na kutoa sumu ambayo huchukuliwa na mwili na kusababisha ugonjwa wa jumla na kuhara kwa njia ya entheogenic. Dalili za kawaida ni anorexia, kupoteza au kupungua kwa hamu ya kula, kutokula chakula, mkojo wenye damu, kinyesi, hematochezia, ataxia, kutounganisha, kutetemeka, kuanguka, dehydration, homa, nk. Kuna idadi ya aina za Escherichia coli ambazo zimetambuliwa na kuonyeshwa katika wanyama. Colibacillosis ni kusimamiwa kwa utawala wa antibiotics, hasa mdomo na mfumo, rehydration tiba, prebiotic na probiotic tiba, usafi maji ya kunywa, mazingira usafi, nk. Salmonella ni aina ya ugonjwa wa kuambukiza ya mbuzi, ambayo inaweza kusababisha kuambukizwa kwa mbuzi, lakini Salmonella typhimurium ni aina ya ugonjwa wa kuambukiza ya mbuzi. Kwa Salmonella, watoto walio chini ya wiki moja wana uwezekano mkubwa wa kufa bila dalili za kliniki, wakati wanyama walio na umri wa zaidi ya wiki moja wana uwezekano mkubwa wa kuambukizwa kuhara. Hii yaweza kuharibiwa na viuavijasumu. Bakteria ya salmonella ina maelfu ya aina za serotipu na zote zinaweza kusababisha kuhara kwa wanyama. Chanjo haijachunguzwa kikamili katika kondoo na mbuzi. Ugonjwa wa cryptosporidiosis (Cryptosporidium parvum) ni ugonjwa wa watoto wa kondoo na watoto wa kondoo wenye umri wa siku 30 au chini. Oocysts zenye maambukizi hupitishwa katika matumbo na hupitishwa kwa kumeza kwa mdomo. Kwa kawaida, ugonjwa wa kuhara kwa mbuzi huendelea kwa siku chache kuliko ugonjwa wa kuhara unaosababishwa na rotavirus, coronavirus, au enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli. Mchochota ni wa rangi ya manjano au nyeupe, wenye maji, na una umajimaji. Katika visa vingi, kuhara hutoweka baada ya siku kadhaa. Paramycin sulfate (PAS) 100 mg kwa siku 11 kutoka siku ya pili ya umri inaonekana kuwa na mafanikio katika kuzuia ugonjwa wa asili katika jaribio la uwanja wa kliniki katika watoto wa mbuzi. Mimba ya mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na ugonjwa wa magonjwa ya tumbo na tumbo la mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi wa mbuzi na mbuzi. Virusi hivyo huathiri watoto wa mbuzi wenye umri wa siku mbili hadi kumi na nne. Wanyama wachanga hufadhaika sana na hupata upungufu wa maji mwilini. Matibabu na utunzaji wa kuunga mkono. Kwa mfano, kupewa chanjo ya rotavirus ya ng'ombe na chanjo ya coronavirus kabla ya kuzaa kunaweza kuongeza kinga ya kibinadamu. Kwa ujumla, virusi havisababishi kuhara kwa kondoo-dume na ndama kuliko ndama. Ugonjwa wa Enterotoxemia unaweza kuua mbuzi na kondoo wa umri wote lakini kwa kawaida huua tu wale wanaotumia viwango vya juu vya wanga. Clostridium perfringens (CPS) ni aina ya bakteria inayoweza kusababisha enterotoxicity, ambayo inaweza kusababisha kifo cha ghafla, kuanguka kwa watoto, na upofu wa watoto. Clostridium perfringens aina C husababisha aina ya enterotoxemia ambayo kwa kawaida inaambatana na scours za damu. Kwa kawaida hutokea miongoni mwa watoto wanaopata uzito haraka wakati wa majuma matatu ya kwanza. Mbuzi wajawazito waliopewa chanjo wiki tatu hadi nne kabla ya kuchezea hutoa kinga ya kingamwili katika maziwa yao. Soda bicarbonate ya Kifaransa ni yenye matokeo. Kwa sababu ya ugonjwa wa kuambukiza, chanjo ya aina ya D-toxoid siku ya kwanza na kupata siku 12-14 baadaye, de-worm na kupunguza nafaka hadi chanjo itaanza kufanya kazi. Chanjo na matibabu ya awali ni bora kuliko tiba katika kesi ya kuhara katika watoto wa mbuzi. Kulisha colostrum kwa wakati hutoa kinga na hutokeza kingamwili kwa watoto. Usalama wa watoto wachanga pia huchangia sana ugonjwa wa kuhara kwa watoto wachanga, kwa hivyo, kufanya mambo yote tuliyojadili hapo juu inasaidia kusimamia afya na uhai wa watoto wa mbuzi.
