Worm problems

In view of the cost of chemical dewormers and the preference of consumers for organically produced goats,most farmers resort to traditional ways of tackling worm problems.These include giving a drench of soy sauce or feeding animals with the leaves of Madre Cacao (gliricidia sepium),custard apple (anona squamosa).jackfruit (artocarpus heterophtlus) or the Manila tamarind (pithecellobium duice).Farmers may also feed their animals on the leaves and young seeds of ipil-ipil and the stems and leaves of the sow thistle (streblus asper).This drench is the common soysauce,made from a mixture of soybean extract,water iodized salt,natural caramel colour and 0.1% sodium benzoate.If farmers observe signs of parasitism in their animals,they may apply as a drench a bottle of about 350 ml. soy sauce per animal to cattle and buffaloes.Goats are given about half this amount.Sow thistle and jackfruit leaves are boiled first and the liquid applied as a drench once a day for at least one week.Young pods of ipil-ipil- are given ad libitum when they are available.
Good Luck

I use nganga/bungang china/betel nut to some animal, the one that old people chew.

In the Philippines,the wet season is a critical period for grazing animals.It is the time when livestock grazing in pastures experience problems of poor nutrition and gastrointestinal worms.Often,fields used as grazing land during the off season are planted in crops during the rainy season.Ruminants such as goats,cattle and buffaloes must then search for other areas where they can feed.Rainy days also bring worm problems,because the warm.moist enviroment encourages the worm eggs to hatch into infective larvae.These larvae move onto the moist leaves of grasses and shrubs,which the rumminants feed on.If animals are allowed to feed,whether loose or tetered,just after rain or early in the morning when grasses are still moist with dew,they may eat leaves covered in infective larvae.These larvae then mature into full grown worms in the stomach of the animals,The worms decrease the production of meat and milk,and reduce the ability of the animals to resist infections.To alleviate these problems,farmers generally avoid grazing their animals on rainy days,or in the early hours of the morning when the sun has not yet dried the dew.Some raisers may confine their animals in pens during the whole rainy season.Others may give their animals a drench with a chemical dewormer,adopt a rotational pattern of grazing,or feed their animals leaves of trees and shrubs which are known to have antihelminthic properties.

One of the signs of a worm problem is diarrhea.
Sometimes but not always green diarrhea means a food change,a good rule to follow is change slowly.
Doc Nemo will be able to help us out more with this problem.

According to farmers in the Philippines,all these methods help to reduce,if not control parasite loads in their animals,espicially goats.For one thing,leaves from shrubs and trees are often free from infective larae,since they grow too high and are too dry for the larvae survival.Moreover,leaves of the plants listed above are known to have anthelmintic properties.

Mucoid type of stool could also indicate parasite problem.
BUt rather than always checking for worm problem it is better just to have regular deworming schedule.

Coccidiosis:
Is a contagious disease of goats,espically young kids,throughout the world.This disease is caused by one or more of approx. 12 different species of protozoa called Eimeria,which parasitize and destroy cells lining the intestinal tract of goats.Sheep are also very susceptible to coccidiosis.Many believe this disease cannot be spread from goats to sheep or sheep to goats.The goat will lose weight,have a poor appetite,may become dehydrated,in the later stages the diarrhea is a sloppy greenish brown with loss of appetite,goats decline fast and may die.You need to give that goat(s) the appropriate drugs and supportive treatment.Treatment of sulfa compounds delivered as drenches or boluses,some may be added to drinking water.Injectable B-complex and vitamin A will help with appetite recovery.One should develope a management system for preventing outbreaks of coccidosis,kids are the most susceptible,they ingest coccidia from the outside of the dams udder while they nurse,they seem to like to eat dirt when thay are young.Weaning is a particularly crucial time for kids,Do not allow your goats to drink water with other livestock on your farm.Hits goat kids the hardest between 4-7 weeks of age.Seems to be more of a problem with established goat farms over new goat farms.Keep your operation as clean as possible to help prevent an outbreak.

Parastic Gastroentertis:
commonly through direct infection with parasitic larval stages herbage,less common through skin penetration and intrauterine infection in some species.
Symptoms:
poor body condition,anemia,diarrhea.potbelly and weakness.
Prevention:
regular deworming with effective anthelmintics (tetramisule,parbendazole,thiabendazole,pyrantel) to name a few products.
Pasture rotation and improved feeding practices.

Parasitic Pneumonia:
infection with the parasite in the larval stage through herbage.
Symptoms:
general signs-persistent husky coughing,respiratory distress.
Prevention:
regular deworming with tetramisole,albendazole or oxfendazole,general prevention as parasite gastroenteritis.

Symptoms:
same as other internal parasitism.passage of tapeworm segment in the feces.
Prevention:
regular deworming with (albendazole,niclosanide.lead arsenate,oxfendazole).

Benedict,all goat farms deworm their goats,goats get sick once the load becomes too heavy,the goats coat will be dull,the goat will be skinny and get diarrhea,could die on you,prevention is always the best management system to follow,we deworm with oral medication every 3 months except the pregnant does.We use a oral medication because it leaves the goats system faster,injection stays in the system longer but can give the worms the upper hand.Goats are one of those animals that needs to be dewormed.We do not deworm the pregnant does because it is risky,we prefer to deworm our does before we breed them.

IN livestock it is more of preventive medicine. So deworming is done in regular interval whether it is positive or negative from parasite.
Just always remember that when deworming you need to give a another shot 2 weeks after the initial dose.
