33
Foot problem due to manure accumulation
Infectious foot dz | in horses, thrush
34
How to control foot problems in dairy
Foot baths Cu or formaldehyde
35
What is component or slug feeding
grain and forage fed separately --> fed a lot of grain
36
Lesion in image means
Comet tails | Small areas of edema and interstitial fibrosis
37
Atrophic rhinitis in pigs
Bordetella | P. multocida
38
"Red nose" etiology
IBR (herpes)
39
Cause of oral necrobacillosis

42
80/20 rule
20% of population has 80% of the worms
43
Refugia definition
Balance between resistance and susceptibility in a population (to meds) Smart drenching is for this
44
FAMACHA scores you should deworm with
3-5
45
What % reduction should be achieved on fecal egg count to indicate no resistance
95%
46
What vax should be included/routine in camelids
Clostridium C and D
47
2 signs for molar floatation in camelids
Quidding Feed retention Bulge in cheeks
48
Condition that results from high lignin content
Omasum impaction --> abomasal impaction
49
2 fxns of primary cycle
Mix (ferment) Absorb (VFA) Empty
50
Condition that --> pasty, semi-liquid stool
Ileus
51
Absence of 1* cycle and lack of VFA results in
Ketosis
52
Methane blue reduction test
Measures viable rumen bacteria
53
2 color changes in rumen fluid
Milky gray --> rumen acidosis | Brown --> rumen alkalosis
54

59
Routine vax in alpacas
Clostridium C and D
60
Why does rumen become alkaline with rumen failure
No VFAs -->imbalance between saliva and VFAs -->
61
How does anorexia lead to fermentation failure
No mixing --> microbes not fed --> die and release nitrogen --> alkaline
62
What factors do you consider when transferring rumen fluid
Warm Do it within 4 hours (quickly)
63
