Dear Marcos, with regard to your question that to make for the case of born pigs of less than 1 kg it is important to keep in mind the viability that these pigs manifest, with this I refer to if they are vivacez and they show interest to suckle, I consider before to apply some medication via oral that procurez that suckle calostros, is important that the mother has not had complications to the childbirth and don't exist problems of MMA (Mastitis, Metritis and Agalactia) if the conditions before mentioned they cannot be achieved by some reason you/he/she appeals to the sacrifice of these animals. In some childbirths mainly in childbirths of numerous litters is common to observe one or two pigs of little weight, however I insist, the vivacity of the pig will give the rule to determine if it is sacrificed or not. He/she remembers that small or retarded pigs are generally since the patógenos reservorios in their majority these they study illnesses of chronic type and they represent a danger towards the other pigs, for it is important to have in considering the to sacrifice or to isolate to this type of pigs, this will depend on the conditions of your production system. Lastly a lot of information exists in this respect that can consult, however if you require of support you don't doubt to contact me. |
