As wet Autumn weather arrives here in the Pacific Northwest, livestock such as horses, cattle, goats, and sheep need extra attention and care to keep their hooves and feet healthy. Thrush, caused by the overgrowth of a type of yeast, thrives in warmer wet conditions. When left to proliferate, it can lead to problems like foot rot, and, in severe cases, can lead to lameness. Animals that are pastured in muddy fields, with no dry spot to stand in, often get thrush. Hooves develop a distinctive, unpleasant odor, and inflammation can lead to painful walking. When this occurs, action must be taken as soon as possible.
As the weather gets cooler and wetter, it’s time to stock up on fire logs and burning pellets. Here at the Snohomish and Monroe Co-Op, we sell a variety of pellets for pellet stoves, and fire-logs to replace the need for firewood.
