4 Nutrition Forages Salt and minerals Supplemental protein and energy 4x1024.jpg?v= /in/photostream/
5 Forages Cattle: % of body weight per day (dry matter) Small ruminant: % body weight Pasture: grass vs legumes? maturity? Hay Grass hays: good maintenance diet Legume hays (alfalfa, clover): high protein and calcium Silage/balelage/ haylage Nutritious; spoilage problems
6 Pastures Overstocking pastures and poor maintenance leads to: compaction and damage to pastures lack of adequate nutrition manure management and run-off issues Parasite overload Dry lot or indoor areas Confine animals when too wet, too dry, or pasture eaten down
7 Pasture rotation
8 Dry lots and indoor housing

15 Organic dewormers Diatomaceous earth not for internal use! Copper Oxide wire boluses (Copasure is one brand) 2 gram boluses in adult goat/sheep, 1 gram in lambs Concentrated Tannins found in plants Big and birdsfoot trefoil, sainfoin, sulla, and sericea lespedeza (legumes) Fresh plants or dried Likely needs to be a high portion of diet
16 Lice and mites: Oh my! Sunlight, stocking density Diatomaceous earth on animals/environment Pyrethin (from Chrysanthemum plant) No synthetic carriers (piperonyl butoxide) Powder or spray Sulfur + Hydrated lime (hot lime sulfur dip) Mineral oil, vegetable oils Enzymatic soaps
