Three of my cows went down after eating to much soya.

Symptoms:
diarrhea
fever
Stiffness
rapid breathing


I am a little lost if anyone can help?
 
I don;t know. I was wondering if, given the protien content, they may have bloated. That would explain them going down, rapid breathing and stiffness. But the fever??

I guess if I were shooting from the hip I would try to treat the symptoms until I could get a vet or neighbor to help. You could (I would) give a shot of banamine, this is an anti inflammatory ~ it could help with the rapid breathing, stiffness (I am assuming here that those symptoms are a result of pain), and fever. What exactly is their temp?? It can elevate some due to pain, or more do to an infection. If it were a potential infection I would suggest antibiotics. If it is not an infection, I would advise against antibiotics as they could cause worse stomach problems/diarrhea. I would strongly suggest getting a probiotic paste into them ~ it will probably help and it can't hurt. Can you get them to drink anything?

Someone had mentioned that it is fermented soybean. The fermentation could be an issue if that is so. I'm not sure what it is either.......

Obviously remove any soy from anywhere they can get to it.

I would get them up do whatever you need to do to get them eating the best hay you have ASAP and maybe a mineral lick tub but mostly hay. To get something in them to offset the soy. Also contact the vet ASAP. Good luck.
 
Well if they didn't die already, put them on hay or grazing and give them a few days...in the meantime fix the entrance to wherever you store your bean meal. (Are you mixing your own feed??)
