New insights on ill-thriftiness in early-weaned buffalo calves
AIM The present study was designed to: (1) Investigate the effect of weaning time on various metabolic indices and growth pattern in buffalo calves compared to cow calves under field condition and (2) Shed light on the potential relationship between early weaning, growth metabolites, and suboptimal growth (ill-thrift) in buffalo calves. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total number of 18 neonatal calv...
متن کاملEffects of probiotic dietary supplementation on diarrhoea patterns, faecal microbiota and performance of early weaned calves
Twenty Lithuanian Black-and-White calves (10 bulls, 10 heifers) were used to evaluate the effects of the supplemental probiotic product, Enterococcus faecium M74 (2.4 g/day/calve), added to fresh milk and skimmed milk in a 56 day-study. The probiotic was administered by dietary supplementation to first group of calves and their respective pens (probiotic group), whereas the second group (contro...
متن کاملAnimal performance and meat quality in cull cows with early weaned calves in Argentina.
Early weaning of calves (60 days old) is adopted in cow-calf operations for its high reproductive response. The objective of this research work was to find how age classes are related to beef quality in early weaning cull cows. Twenty four cows were grouped in four different age classes (teeth and number of calves produced) from two teeth and no calf produced, up to 12 years and 7 calves produc...
متن کاملEarly attachment sites for Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli O157:H7 in experimentally inoculated weaned calves.
Weaned 3- to 4-month-old calves were fasted for 48 h, inoculated with 10(10) CFU of Shiga toxin-positive Escherichia coli (STEC) O157:H7 strain 86-24 (STEC O157) or STEC O91:H21 strain B2F1 (STEC O91), Shiga toxin-negative E. coli O157:H7 strain 87-23 (Stx(-) O157), or a nonpathogenic control E. coli strain, necropsied 4 days postinoculation, and examined bacteriologically and histologically. S...
متن کاملNutritional Quality of Cull Cows with Very Early Weaned Calves in Argentina
The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of very early weaning of calves in cull cows on nutritional quality of meat. Two treatments were assayed: cull cows with very early, thirty days, weaned calves (CVEW) and cull cows with traditionally, seven months, weaned calves (CTW). Cows with very early weaned calves were grazed on pasture, meanwhile cows with traditional weaning were gra...
