    ANIMAL SUPPLIES INTERNATIONAL Hardware Disease Prevention for Farms - GregRobert

    GregRobert Pet Supplies is proud to carry popular brands of Hardware Disease Prevention including Magnet and others.

    Hardware disease is caused when a bovine ingests a relatively heavy and sharp object. The object falls to the floor of the rumen and is pushed forward into the reticulum. The reticulum is one of the compartments in the bovine stomach, and its function is not well understood. However, the contractions of the reticulum force the object into the peritoneal cavity where it initiates inflammation.

    Since it is often impossible to be sure of the diagnosis, a prudent approach would be to conservatively treat as if the cow has hardware disease. This would involve placing a magnet in her forestomach and hoping that it too finds its way to the reticulum. In the absence of rumen contractions, this may not occur. Even if the animal already has had a magnet placed within, it would be prudent to administer a second one when hardware cannot be ruled out. Secondly, a broad-spectrum antibiotic should be administered to control infection.
    GregRobert Pet Supplies offers low prices on many brands of Hardware Disease Prevention including:, Animal Supplies International, Cheetah Products, and other selections.
