🤔 መድኃኒት የተወጋች ላም ወተት ለጥጃ ቢሰጥ ምን ይከሰታል? ብዙዎች የሚሳሳቱበት የሳይንስ እውነታ!

🥛 መድኃኒት የተወጋች ላም ወተት፡ ለሰውም ሆነ ለጥጃ ያለዉ ስጋት ምንድነው?

ብዙዎቻችን ላማችን ታማ መድኃኒት (Antibiotics) ስትወጋ ወተቱን ለሰው ከመስጠት ይልቅ "ለጥጃ መስጠት ችግር ዬለውም" ብለን እናስባለን። ነገር ግን ይህ ውሳኔ ሳይንሳዊ ጥንቃቄ የሚያስፈልገው ጉዳይ ነው።

🚫 ለሰው ልጅ ያለው አደጋ
ላሟ የተወጋችው መድኃኒት በወተቱ ውስጥ ስለሚገኝ፣ ያንን ወተት መጠጣት የሚከተሉትን ችግሮች ያስከትላል፦

1.መድኃኒት መላመድ (Antibiotic Resistance)፦በሰውነታችን ውስጥ ያሉ ባክቴሪያዎች ከመድኃኒቱ ጋር ይላመዳሉ። ነገ እኛ በጽኑ ስንታመም መድኃኒቶቹ ሊፈውሱን አይችሉም።

2. ከባድ አለርጂ፦አንዳንድ ሰዎች በወተቱ ውስጥ ባለው የመድኃኒት ቅሪት ምክንያት ለከፍተኛ የጤና መታወክ ይጋለጣሉ።

🐄 ለጥጃውስ መስጠት ይፈቀዳል? (ሳይንሳዊ እውነታ)
ምንም እንኳ ወተቱን ከመድፋት ለጥጃ መስጠት እንደ አማራጭ ቢታይም፣ የራሱ የሆኑ 3 ትልልቅ ስጋቶች አሉት፦

1.የጥጃው መድኃኒት መላመድ፦ ጥጃው ገና በልጅነቱ መድኃኒት ያለበት ወተት ከለመደ፣ ወደፊት ሲታመም መርፌ ቢወጋ ላይድነን ይችላል።

2.የምግብ መፈጨት ችግር፦** ወተቱ ውስጥ ያለው አንቲባዮቲክ በጥጃው ጨጓራ ውስጥ ያሉትን "ጠቃሚ ባክቴሪያዎች" ስለሚገድል፣ ጥጃው ለተቅማጥና ለዕድገት መገታት ይጋለጣል።

3.የሥጋ ጥራት፦ምንም እንኳ እኛ ሀገር ጥጃ ማረድ የተለመደ ባይሆንም ነገር ግን ጥጃው ምናልባት ለሥጋ የሚታረድ ከሆነ፣ በሥጋው ውስጥ መድኃኒት ስለሚኖር ለተጠቃሚው ሰው አደጋ ይጋራል።

✅ መፍትሔው ምንድነው?
*የመጠባበቂያ ጊዜን (Withdrawal Period) ይጠብቁ፦መድኃኒቱ እንደተወጋ እንደ መድኃኒቱ ዓይነት ከ3-21 ቀናት ወተቱን ለሰውም ሆነ ለጥጃ ባይሰጡ ይመረጣል።

*ሐኪምዎን ያማክሩ፦ወተቱ መቼ ለጥቅም እንደሚውል ሁልጊዜ ባለሙያ መጠየቅ ግዴታ ነው።

*ደህንነቱ የተጠበቀ ምርት፦ ጤናማ ማህበረሰብ ለመፍጠር ጥራት ያለውና ከመድኃኒት ቅሪት ነፃ የሆነ ወተት ለገበያ ያቅርቡ።

ጥያቄ❓
እርስዎ ላምዎ መድኃኒት ስትወጋ ወተቱን ምን ያደርጉታል? ለጥጃ ይሰጣሉ ወይስ ይደፉታል? ወይስ የመጠባበቂያ ጊዜውን በትክክል ይጠብቃሉ?

ልምድዎን በኮመንት ያካፍሉን! 👇

🚨 CAUSES OF SUDDEN HIGH MORTALITY IN LIVESTOCK 🚨
An emergency every farmer must take seriously

Sudden deaths affecting many animals within a short time are a major warning sign. Immediate action can save lives and prevent devastating losses.

🦠 1️⃣ ACUTE INFECTIOUS DISEASES
These diseases spread rapidly and often cause death with little or no warning:

- Anthrax – sudden death, bleeding from nose, mouth, or a**s
- Clostridial diseases (Blackleg, Enterotoxemia, Malignant edema)
- Pasteurellosis – severe pneumonia after stress
- African Swine Fever (pigs) – extremely high mortality
- Newcastle disease & Avian Influenza (poultry)
- Septicemia caused by E. coli or Salmonella

⚠️ Poor vaccination programs and stress greatly increase risk.

☠️ 2️⃣ POISONING & TOXICITY
Often kills animals suddenly without obvious prior illness:

- Toxic plants (Lantana, Nightshade, Castor bean)
- Pesticides, herbicides, rodenticides
- Mycotoxins from moldy feeds
- Nitrate/Nitrite poisoning from certain grasses and crops
- Heavy metals (Lead, Copper toxicity)

🔴 Always suspect poisoning when many animals die at once.

🌾 3️⃣ FEED & NUTRITIONAL ERRORS
Small mistakes can cause massive losses:

- Sudden feed changes
- Grain overload → ruminal acidosis
- Enterotoxemia from overeating
- Mineral deficiencies (Low magnesium → Grass tetany)
- Spoiled, fermented, or moldy feeds

🌡️ 4️⃣ ENVIRONMENTAL & MANAGEMENT FACTORS

- Heat stress or extreme cold
- Poor ventilation (common in poultry & pig units)
- Water shortage or contaminated water
- Overcrowding
- Transport and handling stress

⚡ 5️⃣ METABOLIC DISORDERS
Common in high-producing animals:

- Milk fever (low calcium)
- Grass tetany (low magnesium)
- Pregnancy toxemia (sheep & goats)

🦟 6️⃣ PARASITIC & VECTOR-BORNE DISEASES

- Trypanosomiasis
- Babesiosis
- Anaplasmosis
- Heavy worm infestations

🚑 WHAT TO DO IMMEDIATELY
✔️ Isolate sick animals
✔️ Stop animal movement
✔️ Contact a veterinarian urgent

FOWL CHOLERA OR AVIAN PASTEURELLOSIS 🐔🦃🐓 💉🩺💊

PhotoGuide!!!

Fowl cholera, or avian pasteurellosis, is a highly contagious bacterial disease in birds (chickens, turkeys, waterfowl) caused by Pasteurella multocida, presenting acutely with sudden death or chronic issues like swollen wattles, respiratory issues, or arthritis, controlled by biosecurity, vaccination, and sometimes antibiotics, but is easily spread via contaminated surfaces, f***s, and carriers.

Causes

Bacterium: Pasteurella multocida.

Transmission: Direct bird-to-bird contact, contaminated feed/water, f***s, nasal discharge, equipment, rodents, wild birds, and carrier birds (even asymptomatic ones).

Symptoms

Acute:

Sudden death, loss of appetite, fever, lethargy, increased thirst, bloody diarrhea, respiratory distress (coughing, gasping).

Chronic:

Swollen wattles (pus-filled), swollen joints (arthritis), pneumonia (turkeys), lameness, torticollis (twisted neck), eye/nasal discharge, dullness, ruffled feathers.

Prevention & Control

Biosecurity: Strict hygiene, rodent/pest control, isolating new birds, separating age groups.

Sanitation: Thorough cleaning and disinfection between flocks.

Vaccination: Bacterins or live vaccines (injected or water-administered).

Biosecurity: Good biosecurity practices are crucial for control.

Treatment

Antimicrobials: Sulfa drugs and some antibiotics can treat infections.

Supportive Care: Reducing stress, providing clean water.

Key Facts

Can have mortality rates up to 100% in acute outbreaks.

Often worse in late summer, fall, and winter.

Chronic carriers can maintain the infection in a flock.

Eradication often requires depopulation, cleaning, and disinfection

FINAL FARMER TIP

A good vaccination program works best when combined with proper nutrition, quality feeds, clean water, hygiene, and good farm management. Disease prevention is always cheaper than treatment.

case #22
cows with bloody diarrhea, dyspnea, inappetance, unable to move but with unkown history of vaccination and purchased from west oromia 1 month ago. Recently treated with penicillin(3dys) and penstrep (3dys) but no response. The respiratory distress continued with intestinal lumen distruction and death. However, the blood was clot. What you think???🙄

🗞 𝐏𝐢𝐜𝐚 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐧𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐬 🐄🐑🐐
𝐀 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐄𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐨𝐧-𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐒𝐮𝐛𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬🩺

The consumption of non-food items such as paper, cloth, plastic, soil, wood, metals or garbage is considered an abnormal behavior in animals, known as 𝐏𝐢𝐜𝐚. This condition is usually a sign of an underlying physiological, nutritional or behavioral problem and should never be ignored.

✔️𝐂𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐬
Recent veterinary studies indicate that Pica in animals can result from several major factors:
• 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐬, especially phosphorus, calcium, salt (sodium), iron, cobalt and zinc
• 𝐕𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐬, particularly B-complex vitamins
• 𝐒𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐨𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐢𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲, in the feed ration
• 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐬, such as gastrointestinal worms that interfere with nutrient absorption
• 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬, 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦 𝐨𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐨𝐭𝐲𝐩𝐢𝐜 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐫𝐬 (commonly seen in goats and confined animals)
• 𝐆𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐬 or malabsorption disorders
• 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 that reduce appetite and alter behavior

🖋𝐂𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐬
Animals affected by Pica may show:
• Consumption of paper, plastic, cloth, wood, soil or other non-food objects
• Reduced interest in normal feed
• Weakness, weight loss and anemia
• Restlessness or abnormal behaviors
• Signs of gastrointestinal distress such as bloat, abdominal pain or constipation

📑𝐑𝐢𝐬𝐤𝐬 & 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬
Pica can be extremely dangerous and may lead to life threatening conditions, including:
• 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐛𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 caused by plastic, cloth or other materials
• 𝐑𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐨𝐫 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬
• 𝐒𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐮𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡
• 𝐓𝐨𝐱𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 if chemical substances are ingested
• 𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞𝐝 𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐤 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭

case #20

sheeps with twin lambs present ventrally with one of fore legs and downward diversion of heads. Additionally misproportion of the size of lambs with pelvic bone of the dam so failed to give birth. It was assisted to be corrected unfortunately because of narrowing of pelvic bone it was difficult to access and correct. Accordingly my team decied to do emergency surgical procedure (Ceasearian section) and saved the dam. The follow up will continue with postoperative care.
