I have not had this problem. if the animal this well fed, and received all the attention that all sow receives before the childbirth. this cannot happen, I in their place would eliminate it. you that some sows when having diarrrea the pigs ingest the waste and they begin to lick the anoy if the pig bleeds the sow it continues and it can eat up the pig. although the pig has to be very immobile.

the nutritional deficiencies sometimes make the mothers to look for to recover through the ingestion of the placentas and in the worst in the cases of the pigs, mothers primerizas that they end up calling bad mothers for their aggressiveness or their bad behavior also can in a certain moment to develop cannibalism being stimulated with the ingestion of the blood of other sows or of their pigs. To avoid this a special care it should be had in the development of the substitutions and in the cares during the gestation involving the nutrition and the handling of these mothers directly. It is necessary to remember that the selection of the animals doesn't sometimes finish when selecting the substitutions but rather also to consider mother's class or of partner that turns out to be the future member of the herd.

Hello friends. I would like that they commented me of what it forms it is correct to have the sow in the moment of the parición, since I have heard in occasions that the sow eats up a pig to take more I stimulate and to make good parición. Now, doesn't this clearly manage it, for what I read, I do believe that to the moment of the childbirth one should be there to avoid this whole type of things, or not? Thank you.

In my very humble experience, it is:
to) A wrong handling, with nutritional deficiencies. / environmental Estrés.
b) Genetics: Creole pigs originating of Latin America have low or, in the worst in the cases, terrible maternal ability, what can cause cannibalism. If they are used hybrid of these with commercial lines in order to the wildness of the lines introduced through its offspring to increase, it is an effect that he/she will appear in a minimum percentage. Genetic selection is recommended based on registrations (Nro of pigs weaned with success). Recurrent cannibalism causes suppression or discard of sow, adjustment of litters.

it can be for a problem of cannibalism, or for some syndrome, including some nutritional deficiencies. Recommendation: good nutrition handling in the period of gestation and childbirth.

HELLO
TO ALL

FOR THE EXPERIENCE THAT I HAVE IN FIELD THESE CASES THEY ARE PRESENTED BY STRESS FROM THE SOW TO THE MOMENT OF THE CHILDBIRTH AND IT USUALLY HAPPENS SPECIFICALLY IN SOWS PRIMERIZAS, THERE IS A SIMPLE FORM YSEGURA OF AVOIDING THE AGRECION OF THESE ANIMALS WHEN IT IS PRESENTED AND IT IS THE APPLICATION OF A TRANQUILIZER AND WORKED WITH THE PRODUCT STRESNIL (AZAPERONUM 40 MGS) IN ADAPTED DOSE FOR THE FIRST DAY POST CHILDBIRTH, A SINGLE DOSE IS USUALLY ONLY NEEDED TO OBTAIN GOOD RESULTS

Greetings to all. In the particular thing, I agree with the partners that have given two possible causes: the nutrition of the animal y/o the estrés problem of the female to the moment of the childbirth. What should be defined is in what moment the cannibalism is presented.

Definitively, this factor has to do with problems of nutritional character, that which relapses in handling of the herd. The primordial thing to avoid and to control this type of situations is to make an autorevisión of the handling mechanisms that are implementing in the farm to correct the opposing weaknesses, mount a nutrition program more landed to the nutritional real necessities of the sow in their different stadiums (that change according to their age), in order to offering him an atmosphere less hóstil and healthy to the animal.
It is important to keep in mind that if the sow doesn't change this behavior after repairing the possible causes, it is necessary to discard it since as reproductora this behavior it will be given again. At least to leave to the sow another litter more to make the decision of it discards.
Luck!
