Birth and mortality
Hello, I have problems in the birth of the pigs, many of them are born with the weak back paws and they can hardly stop. They are generally but small and they die quick, I would like to know if it is for bad feeding or some illness, etc.

The problem of open paws mainly the back ones are had atribuído several causes:
1 - a bad feeding of the female gestante, some investigations say that the hill deficiency, we have observed that also in floors resbalosos you increases the incidence and overalls when there is not attention of the childbirths, although the deficiencies of minerals and vitamins and a food not very well balanced in their nutritional requirements.
2 - some reproductive illnesses can also cause you this type of weak pigs to the birth.
It is what I can comment you attn Toño Méndez

Julio: One of the more frequent causes associated to the birth of pigs with open paws are the contamination of the grains used in the elaboration of the food, with aflatoxinas.
When one has this problem you can also observe, female gestantes with the enlarged vulva and it dries up.
It revises if the grains are well stored, that is to say that the humid places are not because this favors the growth of mushrooms that you/they produce aflatoxinas. Finally if there is aflatoxinas, you can use secuestrantes.

If I have understood the question well, it is related to weak back paws, and not open necesarimante, for what would be interesting to have an explanation on the matter.
It is certain that weak paw can be due to nutritional problems, or aflatoxinas, it would be important to know since about what is the Classic Swinish Pest or Swinish Cholera, it is a virus that invades uterus, including to the virus that we apply like it vaccinates, and this can end up killing pigs inside the uterus, and when they are born these they are small and weak, undoubtedly it is not the only cause, but it is necessary to keep it in mind, especialemnte in populations where it is vaccinated, and where the classic form of the illness is part of the history, and where the virus of low patogenicidad causes serious problems at level of born litters.
