a bloat guard like proloxalene prevents what

A

inhibits protein in alfalfa that causes frothy bloat

127
Q

what is the need for long stem hay

A

scratch factor

128
Q

what causes a ruminant to be combat deficient and what pathway will be inhibited due to this deficiency?

A

a lack of B12 will result in cobalt deficiency, it is needed to use the VFAs and the methylmalonyl pathway will be prevented

129
Q

To maintain rumen health what do you need

A

long stem hay

130
Q

How and why does parakeratosis occur, what happens to the liver?

A

when an animal has a high concentrate diet with no long stem hay for that scratch factor it results in matte papillae. This allows for the fermentation of grains (barley, wheat, etc.) between the papillae and the microbial bugs feast on grains resulting in the increase of lactic acid. it increases the pH and burns a hole within the rumen. Then the bugs travel to the liver resulting in a liver abscesses

131
Q

why do horses need long stem hay for

they need it for gut fill to prevent a twisted gut
