Causes and prevention of pig biting
There is a problem that novice pig farmers often ask, is that why pigs bite their tails? In fact, this symptom of pig biting is a kind of disease that often occurs during pig raising. The main reasons are as follows: (1) Management factors: (1) Insufficient feeding, insufficient material level, unreasonable design of the trough, etc., cause pigs to eat insufficiently; (2) Poor water quality, insufficient or limited drinking water; (3) poor ventilation, air pollution, too low or too high temperature, too high humidity; (4) Pigs are swayed and the density is too large, and the size of pigs is significantly different; (5) Vaccination, noise, frequent or sudden replacement of feed; (6) Pigs with incomplete castration in the pigs. (2) Disease factors: (1) exudative dermatitis, especially in mixed group and juxtaposition; (2) parasitic infections; (3) Bite of blood-sucking insects (such as mosquitoes, flies, etc.). (3) Nutritional factors: (1) Inferior or degraded raw materials are fed to pigs; (2) Malnutrition caused by low-nutrition feed; (3) Feeds with low salt content, low protein or unbalanced calcium and phosphorus. (4) Prevention and control measures: (1) Breaking the tail. Piglets should be cut off and cut teeth in time after birth. The cut site should be disinfected to avoid infection. (2) The pig begins to bite the tail, indicating that the environmental conditions of the pig house are very poor. Different measures can be taken: the size, strength and weakness of each pig, and the uniform male and female in the same circle should not have pigs that are not castrated or incompletely cast; the parallel should be carried out in the case of pigs starving, and Immediately after feeding, it is necessary to timely control the body and surface parasites of pigs; in summer, it is necessary to strengthen the prevention of mosquitoes and breeding. (3) Strengthen the prevention and treatment of pig diseases. When pigs with tail-biting appear, such pigs have a vicious phase and should be kept in isolation immediately. (4) Use high quality nutritionally balanced feed. In special cases, if you are free to drink water, the amount of salt can be increased to 0.9% in the short term.
