abomasal bloat

abomasal bloat
bloat in calves or lambs on milk replacement diets, seen especially when the milk replacer is warm or contains insoluble ingredients or if the animals have not been fed for a few hours and drink too much. The distended abomasum may compress adjacent organs and vessels, resulting in fatal asphyxia or heart failure.
