Monthly we check:

*Body condition scoring, gotta get your hands on them

*FAMACHA score

    *Tells us if animal is anemic

        *Anemia points to possible parasite issue or MH

        *We perform fecal and deworm with appropriate drug

        *Or we treat for the "silent killer" Mycoplasma (MH)

*Give injectable ivermectin to prevent M-worm
