Q

deworming protocol for foals vs adult equids

A

foals - recommended treatment with benzimidazoles at 60-90 days old

acquired immunity usually develops before the horse is 2 yrs old - ascarid control efforts are not required in mature horses

monthly frequency of ivermectin is excessive -> resistance

quarantine
nursery
isolation
breeding
food storage/supply

44

A

contextualized care

66
Q

type of care:
