Application:

A Teric Block to aid the prevention of Bloat

Weights:

15kg, 40kg, 100kg

Feeding Instructions:

Remove outer carton and plastic cover and place near water troughs, dams and stock camps.

Place out sufficient blocks to avoid overcrowding of stock. Initially, the consumption rate will be higher than average, but higher rates of consumption will drop after an initial "gorging" period.

Replace immediately when consumed.

When to Use Blotliq:

Acute frothy bloat is an extreme emergency and should be relieved by emergency rumenotomy.

Even following the relief of pressure and the evacuation of the rumen, many of these animals will die.

Less acute cases, which are almost certainly present in the herd with cases of acute bloat, can be treated with surfectants (such as teric), movement and positioning the animal with the head uphill, e.g. by using a loading race.

Avoid back grazing. The new shoots appearing after the paddock has been grazed are highly bloat inducing. Other control measures include bloat blocks and/or bloat capsules. It is important to remember that Blotliq must be supplemented BEFORE as well as during the traditional bloat season.

Also, by supplementing livestock all year round with multi-nutrients, the overall incidence of bloat in the herd will decrease as the animals will be in a better position to cope with nutritional abnormalities, such as Bloat.
