Incidence of hoof deformities in honamli herd raised semi-intensively

Year 2024, Volume: 9 Issue: 1, 236 - 239, 12.06.2024

Abstract

Although hoof deformities are frequently encountered in small cattle, this situation is ignored by breeder until the animal shows signs of lameness. Nail deformities, environment, nutrition and individual characteristics of the animal are effective in the occurrence of foot diseases. Overgrowth is the most common cause of lameness. Correctly trimming the nails at regular intervals can prevent lameness. Lack of sufficient movement space in hovels and shelters, dung and urine on the floor of the hovel, inadequate walking and not going out to pasture prevent the nail from being sufficiently worn out and cause the nail to grow excessively and become deformed. Some congenital hoof defects, leg and foot posture disorders and similar structures pave the way for foot diseases in small ruminants. It is very important for the herd that animals with this structure are not used as breeding stock. In intensive breeding, foot diseases and hoof deformations cause significant economic losses. The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence of hoof deformities in semi-intensive Honamlı goat herds. In the study, 163 Honamlı breed goats were examined for hoof deformities. Hoof deformities were detected in 61 of 163 honamlı goats. In the distribution of hoof deformities in Honamlı goats; 54 (55,10%) of the goats with hoof deformities had lateral deviation hoof, 2 (2,04%) had corkscrew hoof, 2 (2,04%) had cleft hoof and 2 (2,04%) had beak-like hoof. It was concluded that Honamlı goats are more resistant to hoof deformities than other small ruminant species and other goat breeds.
