Too much salt in sheep can also be poisoned. How should we prevent sheep salt poisoning? Farmers need to pay attention to the daily eating and drinking of sheep.
Salt is an indispensable ingredient in animal feed. The proper amount of salt can maintain the normal water and salt metabolism in animals and increase appetite and gastrointestinal activity, but overdose can cause poisoning.
The poisoning amount of salt per kilogram body weight of sheep is 3-6 grams; the lethal dose of adult sheep salt is 125-250 grams. The occurrence of salt poisoning or death in sheep does not depend solely on the intake of salt, but also on the adequacy of drinking water. If you consume too much salt but you drink a lot of water at the same time, it will not necessarily be poisoned. On the contrary, if too much salt is consumed and there is no drinking water, the chance of poisoning will increase. Feeding sheep with 2% salt feed, while restricting the sheep's drinking water, poisoned a few days later; but fed a diet containing 13% salt, while not limiting drinking water, did not result in poisoning.
Symptoms Salt poisoning in sheep is mainly caused by respiratory depression, conjunctival flushing, thirst, drunkenness, blurred vision or blindness, tremors and spasms in muscles, and finally fell to the ground, irregular strokes in the limbs, and coma. The necropsy was diagnosed with congestion and hemorrhage in the meninges and brain, flushing, bleeding, or edema of the gastrointestinal mucosa.
In the early stage of treatment diagnosis, intravenous injection of normal saline containing 5% dextrose 500 ml can be used;
Organic inulin powder is a natural food source of prebiotic soluble fibers. Inulin is a soluble fiber naturally found in many fruits and vegetables like bananas, asparagus, garlic, onions, and more. Our inulin is extracted from the Jerusalem artichoke rhizome. We extracted the inulin by water extraction, ion exchange, membrane filtration, and spray drying, and other processes. Inulin has many health benefits. It can increase calcium absorption and possibly magnesium absorption while promoting the growth of beneficial intestinal bacteria.
