Zinc deficiency in sheep and goats: three field cases.

D R Nelson, W A Wolff, D J Blodgett, B Luecke, R W Ely, J F Zachary.   

Abstract

Zinc deficiency was diagnosed in 2 flocks of sheep and a herd of goats. Alopecia and eating of wool were observed. Skin lesions were hyperkeratosis and parakeratosis. Abnormal hoof growth and a closed stance with arched back and bowed hindlimbs were seen. Anorexia, depression, and foot soreness diminished quickly after zinc supplementation. Skin lesions healed and hair and wool growth resumed. A cause for the deficiency could not be established.
