I had no idea how the internal exam would be done. You must have a strong understanding and a strong stomach to do that kinda exam on a cow. Is it the same for all large animals ?
Yes it needs both theoritical knowledge and in-depth practical experience,i have thankfully had the opportunity to do this over a number of years. Well,the other large animals i know are Rhinos,Elephants et cetera,for these they mostly test for hormones and proteins in feces,and urine.
Dr adera how can I get in touch with you. We have a shed and 3 vets have not been able to agree on pregnancy status. Do you have any recommendations on mobile ultra sound devices to simply pregnancy tests with certainty?
No,Ultrasound needs at least 28-35 days. Hormonal assay needs at least 90 days after calving to check. Pregnancy associated glycoprotein check up also needs at least 90 days after calving. Transrectal palpation also needs at least 35 days,i do it at 60 days onwards.
Good question,there are six ways 1.You can stand behind the ewe and clasp the belly with both of your hands just infront of the udders and try to lift up,in late gestation you will feel the fetus/es.Only accurate in late gestation,at least 60 days onwards 2.Testing of Estron Sulphate presence and levels in urine-this one is done at 50 and 70 days after breeding. 3.Hormones-Progesterone hormones can be tested at 50 and 70 days after breeding. 4.Radiography at 70 and 90 days after breeding. 5.Vaginal biopsies at day 40 after breeding 6.Ultrasound-this is by far the most accurate,and can be done between 60-80 days after breeding. If you are in Kenya then we could have a call. Thank you.
