What's the webinar about?
It’s winter, and now is when we see Coccidiosis in our flocks and herds. Coccidiosis can cause significant losses in your herds and flocks.
You hear a lot of talk about ‘Coxie’ causing disease in livestock, but what is it?
This parasite more formally called ‘coccidiosis’, affects young sheep, cattle and goats, plus a range of other animal species, including pigs and chooks. As well as death and sickness, Coxie can slow growth rates in young stock. Sometimes undiagnosed stock losses may be due to Coxie.
Although seen most often over the winter months, Coxie is present in normal flocks and herds all year round, and when conditions are right, Coccidia will proliferate and cause disease.
Join the ParaBoss team as we explore this parasite, which conditions give rise to its proliferation and disease, what the signs and symptoms of disease are and its impacts on sheep, cattle and goats. We will also discuss what steps you can take to minimise its impact in your stock.
We look forward to you joining us for what will be an informative overview, along with some excellent signposts to tools that you can use.
As always, we encourage you to send in any questions to extension@paraboss.com.au or ask them in real time in the webinar!
