Chapter 81 Equine paraascariasis

Not to mention that Li Daodao and others couldn't help but cry on the spot because they ate the cake made by Li Li for the first time, not only they were moved by their parents, but even Li Cheng's grandmother and parents were also very moved, a cake was eaten in such an atmosphere, and Li Li, who was a little chef, was patiently guiding Lulu to make cakes, looking at her as a chef, with that fat face, it was very cute and funny.

Lulu did not despise Li Li because of her young age, after knowing and listening to the lectures, and remembering the basic points of making rice cooker cakes, the two began to make cakes together, of course, followed by a small tail, that is, classmate Li Guang.

The marinated pork loin will take a while, in fact, the barbecued pork is easier to make, after the marinade, directly put it into the bottom of the rice cooker coated with ** oil, you can also put some ginger slices, pat the flat garlic, click a cooking button, and don't worry about it directly.

The rice cooker barbecued pork after the pot is extremely crispy, and the taste of the barbecued pork is not inferior to the outside, and it is quite good-looking, the most important thing is that it is simple! No frying, no baking, a rice cooker solves many problems, so a rice cooker in hand, I have it in the world! The ultimate tool for lazy people.

In fact, the rice cooker can also cook a lot of delicacies, not only cakes, barbecued pork, but also cola chicken wings, secret garlic pork ribs, fried buns, pizza, etc., which is a universal artifact!

Simple, convenient, practical, taste is not bad, this is the reason why the rice cooker has become the new favorite of the kitchen, of course, Li Cheng will teach Li Li and other juniors one by one to learn, cooking is a necessary skill for women to live at home, and now the female surname, for the kitchen has gradually lost interest, in fact, in ordinary life, women will be good cooks, to maintain the harmony and happiness of the family has a great effect.

For a single male surname, satisfying the needs of the stomach can improve the quality of life, so this is also the reason why Noah has always been ashamed to ask and apprentice with Li Cheng.

Knowledge is wealth, Li Cheng is just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, more inquiries about cooking knowledge, for Li Cheng is a hobby, every day to change a pattern, so that the family eat and sleep well, is the most important thing Li Cheng can do in the family abroad.

While the children continued to tinker with rice cooker cakes, Old Peake walked in with a wrong face and quietly pulled Li Cheng to the outside space to discuss.

Li Cheng was very strange, why was the always calm old Peake so flustered, could something be wrong? It stands to reason that the biggest danger in the grizzly bear ranch, the invasion of the Siberian tiger, has been solved by Li Cheng without everyone's knowledge, that is, it is impossible for the Siberian tiger to hurt people to happen again, why is old Peake worried?

"Old Peake, what's going on?" Li Cheng carefully observed Old Peake, this is a bit like his style, swallowing and spitting, where is the demeanor of a bold old cowboy in the west!

Old Peake seemed to hesitate, thought for a while, and said, "Cheng, let me tell you the truth, I just inspected the Eastern Horse Farm, and there was a problem. Old Peake took out a bag containing something similar to excrement, and a piece of appeared in front of Li Cheng, instantly making him lose his appetite.

And old Peake took out another bottle of liquid and said, "Cheng, this is saturated salt water, you can see for yourself." I saw old Peake put the horse manure into a container, poured saturated salt water, and after a while, a layer of yellow-white eggs floated on the surface.

"Parasites? Is it inside the foal in the Eastern Stables? Li Cheng suddenly realized, it turned out that there was a problem with the 10,000 foals, no wonder Old Peake was worried, after all, this foal was purchased by him throughout the whole process, and he was responsible for something. He also examined a number of foals' excrement and found that each of them had eggs, indicating a wide spread.

"Well, this is a parasite among the roundworms, the foal's disease, according to my experience is estimated to be 'equine paraascariasis', once in the spring and summer, the eggs will become larger roundworms, 150 mm long, female roundworms can reach 360 mm, the harm to the foal is great, not only the roundworm will make the foal consume a lot of forage, feed, affect its health, and even a wide range of death!" The elder Peake has worked in the ranch for decades, and has seen a lot of diseases of animals large and small, and he still remembers equine paraascariasis.

"And what's the situation with the Eastern foals now?" This is what Li Cheng is most concerned about, and now the main thing is how to solve this disease, he thought of Professor Bob, he should find an expert-level veterinarian, which is why the elder Peake suggested that Li Cheng continue to maintain this cooperative relationship with the University of Calgary College of Veterinary Medicine.

"The situation is not optimistic, the infection has affected 80% of the foals, and basically every foal has different degrees of roundworm eggs in their bodies," said Peake Sr. ”

"Well, although the area of infection is wide, but as far as I know, if it is detected in time, the damage will be minimized, and I will immediately call Professor Bob to send someone over." Li Cheng called Professor Bob, because the relationship with him had deepened, and Professor Bob generously sent his right-hand man Caroline, a veterinarian.

In Professor Bob's view, equine paraascariasis, although it is a relatively harmful disease, is a common disease of foals, and humans have a perfect treatment, and because old Peake was discovered relatively early, it was not discovered at the time of the outbreak of spring and summer, so it basically will not cause harm to these 10,000 foals, which is a blessing in misfortune.

Caroline is a graduate veterinarian, and her supervisor, Bob, intends to let her stay in school to do research, but Caroline is very enthusiastic about her work, and the research is a little boring, so she has not agreed to stay in school and is considering.

His practical ability is obvious to all, when Professor Bob told him to rush to the grizzly bear ranch, he drove a car to the grizzly bear ranch, and when he arrived here, it was already 2 hours later, and the rice cooker and barbecued pork were ready.

Old Peake and the others taste the delicious barbecued pork and leave some for Caroline, but Caroline, who is anxious to find out about the foal's condition, refuses.

"Mr. Cheng, I'm not in the mood to eat anything right now, hurry up and take me to the stable, I want to take a sample." Caroline, a blonde beauty, tied a ponytail at random, wore a casual sportswear, and carried a large medicine box, which was quite a bit of a posture.

Li Cheng, Old Peake, Noah, Banjie, and Caroline took a pickup truck and went to the eastern stables, Caroline was busy all of a sudden, and Noah and Banjie, who didn't know the situation, were a little confused.

Noah asked, "Cheng, is the foal sick?" ”

"Well, I am infected with parasites, it seems to be roundworms, but fortunately, it is winter, and if in a few months, roundworms have a suitable environment to grow, then the consequences are unimaginable." Li Cheng is also a little afraid, he is still too tender for the breeding of horses, if it weren't for the old Peake with a professional-level cowboy, maybe he would have lost a lot this time, this batch of foals, but it cost a lot of money! There are almost more than 3 million Canadian dollars, which is equivalent to more than 17 million soft sister dollars.

He now only has more than two million Canadian dollars to maintain the operation of the ranch, once a large number of horses die, his loss will be incalculable, the harvest cost of raising horses is slow, and all of them die before they are raised, so it is a devastating blow to the ranch! The two ranches were brought together on an area of thirteen thousand acres, and the first large-scale breeding of horses would be a setback for all if it failed.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, the business philosophy of raising horses is a decision made by Li Cheng after careful consideration, if it fails, then he has to change his thinking, and now he found it in time and did not cause any losses.

Caroline was nervously taking samples for testing, and the same method as old Peake had come to the same conclusions, and then it was time for treatment and insecticide prevention.

A dose of albendazole (albendazole) anthelmintic drug was prescribed, the dosage was clearly written, taken internally, once a day, using a dose of 5mg per 1kg.

Then there is the preventive measure, let the staff in the farm regularly deworm, do not graze for 3-5 days after deworming, in order to kill the roundworm eggs in the excrement. In addition, the stables should be completely disinfected, including fecal biological heat treatment, utensils disinfection, drinking water, tap water, etc.

Basically, stick to it for a week, or at most about a month, and the immature roundworm eggs will disappear.

Li Cheng estimated that the reason why the foal would have a large-scale outbreak of equine paraascariasis was nothing more than the sequelae left by the Yankees.
