How to do a good job of feeding and management of piglets

High piglet survival rates and large weaning weights are the goals pursued by breeders. However, due to the imperfect physiological function of suckling piglets, coupled with improper feeding and management, it is bound to cause high piglet mortality and low weaning weight. Good feeding management always runs through the whole process of helping the piglets to have a good "three levels". 1, newborn piglets off. The mortality rate of piglets within 1 week after birth can account for 60% of the total mortality. The main causes of the disability are frozen death, crushed death, starvation, and death from the jaw. To prevent death caused by the above factors, the insulation must be well maintained. Anti-pressure, so that piglets eat colostrum, fixed teats, iron and foster care and other work. A: Insulation and pressure prevention: The suitable ambient temperature for piglets is: 1 to 7 days of age, 33 to 28 degrees, 8 to 30 days of age, 28 to 25 degrees, and 31 to 60 days of age, 25 to 23 degrees. B: Colostrum colostrum is rich in immune-bad protein and has the ability to resist disease. If the newborn piglets cannot eat colostrum, the survival rate is very low. c: Fixed teat piglets must be manually assisted in fixing the teats within 2-3 days of birth. The principle is: Let the big and strong piglets be fixed on the teats with less milk at the back, and the weaker piglets should be fixed on the teats with more milk in the front, which can make the whole litter of piglets well-developed. D: When fostering and merging, the sow's farrowing date should not exceed 3-4 days at the time of foster care. At the same time, the foster piglets must eat colostrum. E: Intravenous injections of bupivacaine within 2 to 3 days after birth. 2. The piglet's feed intake is off. The piglets begin to feed 5-7 days after birth. The feed intake time should be selected when the piglets are most active. Generally, they are 8-11 points in the morning and 14-18 points in the afternoon. 3. Piglets weaned off. After weaning, we should pay attention to the following aspects. (1) Weaned piglets should not be kept in a circle or in a mixed group. The piglets should be kept in the original circle for at least 5 days. Do not feed several litters at the same time while weaning, so as not to cause double stress on the weaned piglets. (2) Feeding at the time of weaning is continued and feeding is not performed. (3) Feeding amount should be controlled during the week of weaning. Because the digestive tract of the piglet is not yet fully adapted to the feed, indigestion and diarrhoea are very likely to occur. The piglets on the first day of weaning tend to eat very little, but on the second day they will eat too hard because of hunger. This will cause them to squat due to indigestion. Therefore, it is necessary to properly control the amount of feed after about one week after weaning. The number of feedings should be guaranteed 6-8 times a day and night. Afterwards, the number of feedings will gradually decrease until half a month or so. (4) Ensure that drinking water is adequate and clean during weaning, and that the column should be regularly cleaned and disinfected to keep it dry and sanitary.
