Cow/Calf
This grazing method divides pastures, allowing rest and regrowth between grazing events
What is rotational grazing?
This is caused by rapid decrease in ruminal pH with increased introduction of starch in the diet
What is rumen acidosis?
After allowing sheep access to cattle mineral, you observe dark urine and jaundice. Result of this toxicity
What is copper?
Milk replacer is high in these two nutrients
What are fat and protein?
This is a result of a magnesium deficiency
What is grass tetany?
Crucial maximum threshold calves must receive colostrum before there is a reduction in passive immunity transfer
What is 6-24 hours
This hormone-like additive improves rate of gain in heifers by suppressing estrus
What is melengestrol acetate (MGA)?
Increasing energy and nutrient intake right before breeding
What is flushing?
This component of milk replacer determines how much is fed
What are milk solids?
Age of cow that exhibits the highest feed conversion efficiency
What is a calf?
Desired BCS at calving
What is 5-6?
Of the 3 frame scores discussed, this group will take the greatest number of days on feed to reach finish
What is large?
In sheep diets, an imbalance in this ratio can cause strain on urination after being fed a high-grain diet
What is the calcium-to-phosphorus ratio (low)?
Dairy cows in early lactation mobilize this tissue to meet energy demand
What is adipose?
These compounds bind minerals to organic molecules like amino acids to improve absorption
What are chelates?
This dietary imbalance leads to excessive loss of condition after calving with a low peak milk production
What is a negative energy balance?
Symptoms of stress, decreased intake, and coughing
This is a modification to the diet to increase protein and palatability to encourage intake
What is increased roughage?
Diet additive to reduce risk of urinary caliculi
What is ammonium chloride (acid)?
Increase this can help meet energy demand when intake cannot be increased
What is energy density (fat)?
Desired pH of the rumen
What is 6?
Low-fiber and high-concentrate diets after calving results in an increased risk for this to occur
What is a displaced abomasum?
Addition of this additive to the diet will improve feed efficiency and control coccidiosis
What is rumensin?
Common cause of weight loss in goats, despite having access to pasture. After investigation, you observe pale eyelids and conclude the pasture is overgrazed
What are parasite larvae?
In young calves, this anatomical part diminishes around 4-8 weeks, following suckling and the gradual inclusion of concentrates into the diet
What is the reticular groove?
This is a hormone stimulation resulting in improved growth rate and feed efficiency
What is a buffer?
