Why do hoofs for cows?
Cow hoof repair refers to a technique that uses knives, scissors, saws, files, or hoof machines to restore the shape and physiological function of cow's hoofs.
The types of cow hoof disease include diseases such as foot rot disease, hoof deformity, laminitis, hoof dermatitis, finger-to-toe intertwining, hoof erosion, and hoof-bottom trauma. Among the above-mentioned hooves, foot carcasses and ungulate deformations are the most common. Cow cowshoe disease is one of the four most common diseases of dairy cows. Due to the specific conditions of each farm, the incidence of hoof disease is also different. It will not only affect the normal life of dairy cows, but also lead to a decline in the production performance of dairy cows. Improper handling may even result in the elimination of dairy cows, resulting in greater economic losses. The following points are used to repair hoofs in cows:
1. Reasonably and promptly repair hoofs to prevent the exoskeleton from intensifying and causing the limbs to change.
2. Cows with hoof disease have therapeutic efficacy. When rot between toes, hoof rot, and foot rot occur, repairs can promote healing of hooves.
3, increase the amount of milk production.
4. To increase the useful life of dairy cows and reduce the elimination rate.
Hoof repair can effectively prevent cow hoof disease and protect the health of cows. Therefore, hoofs should be repaired in time.
Hoofing method
1, preoperative preparation
1 Instruments: hoof knife, file, saw, hammer and string.
2 Drugs: Disinfecting Cotton, Copper Sulphate, Lysol, 10% iodine, pine oil, potassium permanganate powder, and bandages.
3 staff: 1 person, 12 assistants.
2, hoof repair techniques
The cows were bred in a four-posted or two-column column and the hoofs were lifted. The surgeon stood on the outside of the hoof repaired and was individually refitted according to the different hoof shape and condition.
1 long hoof. Use a hoof knife or a truncated knife to trim out the excess length of the hoof and use a pair of scissors to repair the bottom of the hoof and flatten it with a file to make it round.
2 wide hooves. Put a hoof knife or a truncated knife on the dorsal side of the hoof, and use a wooden hammer to hit the blade and back. Cut off the excessively wide horny part, and then repair and flatten the bottom surface of the hoof.
3 roll the hoof. Remove the hypertrophy on the medial side of the fold and remove the long keratinous area with a saw, and then lick the edge.
4 rot and hoof rot. First of all, according to its hoof-shaped changes, the bottom of the hoof will be repaired and treated thoroughly. If the hoof shell falls off, the rotting is deep, and the cow is difficult to stand on, it will have to be eliminated.
Precautions
1. Establish a regular hoof repair system. Every year during the spring and autumn census or after dry milk and calving, fix hoof once.
2. Accurately determine the shape of the hoof and prevent overcutting. The length of the front hoof is 7.58.5 centimeters, the length of the hind hoof is 89 centimeters, and the thickness of the sole is 57 centimeters.
3. Minimize the medial toe so that the medial toe is as high as possible and the two toes are equally high. When the cow is standing, the hoof must have an appropriate angle to the phalanx and long axis.
4. The bottom of the shoe should be inclined to the shaft side, ie the shaft side is relatively concave. In the rear half of the toe, the closer to the toe clearance, the greater the inclination should be.
5. When keratinous lesions occur, the back of the toes should be cut as low as possible to remove loose skin from the ball and hoof wall of the hoof, and thin the keratinous edge to make a gentle transition. In the invasive dermis, the dermis is proliferated. If the dermis is prominent and the base is small, the entire granulation tissue can be removed with a sharp knife.
6. For disease-fighting cows in cattle, hoofs should be repaired when hoof repairs are performed. Because the limbs are lame, the lateral toes of the health limbs must be excessively weight-bearing. Because the affected toe is often lightened or exempted from weight loss, the weight of the healthy limbs will continue. In order to ensure the good function of the health limb, it is necessary to perform functional hoof repair. If the phlegm is serious, the health limb cannot be lifted, and the diseased cattle can be recovered from the clean, dry and soft ground. This can accelerate the recovery and reduce the phlegm, so that the shin can be repaired as soon as possible. If a few days or a week after hoofing, there is no obvious improvement in the awakening but a detailed inspection of the relevant toes is necessary.
