Neonates are susceptible to infections and need management attention. Aiming at the prophylaxis of pathologies in the herd, it is essential to be accompanied by an employee oriented and prepared to carry out interventions if necessary. The main pathogens related to this disease are Salmonella sps, Escherichia coli, Cryptosporidium parvum, Rotavirus, Coronavirus.
