Deer
Everything connects to the gut. When you aren’t properly fueling your herd, your deer will have low energy levels, patchy coats, and poor appetites.
When deer gut health is at its best, your herd will have an improved coat and more energy, healing them from the inside out. Priority IAC is scientifically designed to help maintain a healthy rumen and gastrointestinal tract when fed daily.
Priority IAC deer supplements stimulate lactic acid use in the rumen and lower intestinal tract to maintain a healthy population of beneficial bacteria. Field studies find these branded strains of Smartbacteria to balance rumen pH.
Boost your deer herd’s overall health with Priority IAC Smartbacteria. See an improved coat and better digestive health naturally with specifically chosen Smart Strains™ found naturally in the body.
Common Deer Health Concerns
Deer can contract a variety of health issues, causing diseases and nutritional deficiencies. Many common issues deer farms face are directly connected to the deer’s gut health and nutrition.
Let’s look at a few of the common health issues in deer.
Clostridial Disease
Anaerobic bacteria cause this common deer disease. This bacteria is often found in soil and can be fatal to the deer. You can often see clostridial through diseases such as blackleg and tetanus.
Dermatophilosis
Dermatophilosis is a common disease found within deer farms. A spore-forming bacteria called Dermatophilus congolensis causes skin lesions or scabs, producing red, raw, or inflamed layers of skin. Matted hair is a common sign of dermatophilosis.
Papillomas
These wart-like growths on deer are produced by infections within the body. They can occur on all parts of the body and are contagious within the species.
Worms
Common deer worms include roundworms, tapeworms, flukes, and coccidia. As deer forage for food, they can ingest infected grass. A worm infection can lead to behavioral and neurological issues in deer.
