We have another hurdle to work with right now, it is called Caustic Bush. This weed is TOXIC to cattle (sheep & horses too) and it is growing everywhere. In good seasons this is not really a problem as the cattle don’t eat enough of it. But when it is a drought and there is nothing else growing out in the paddock they consume it in large quantities. Signs and symptoms; . Restlessness, . Staggering and collapse, . Rapid breathing, paddling legs, . Jaws may be clamped shut, salivate heavily, . Seizures, convulsions, limb paddling. Animals with mild symptoms recover those with severe problems die or we have to put them down. Also please leave a dot (.) or an actual comment to ensure this page continues to show up in your news feed. Please share too.
