Hi Doc,
Talaga ba na hindi maiwasan ang bansot na biik ?
3 inahin naman nag farrow ng 11,13.14 piglets.
I noticed that those nag timbang ng less than 1 kilo
ay maging bansot na ito at hindi tumatagal ang buhay.
Paano kaya maiwasan ang pagsilang ng inahin ng bansot na biik?
Is there any medication ba na dapat ibigay sa inahin during pregnancy/gestation period ?
Thanks,
Nick

It is a part of the business. Bansot/runt / mummified / still birth is part of the business.
In some farm animal that are less than 500 grams when born are being sacrifice /pinapatay.

Like you said if less than 1 kilo they tend to be runt or smaller than his/her siblings.
As long as you have 10 piglets from  weaning to market that are  regular size or marketable size then your farm is still in good shape.

To overcome it you need TLC from your caretaker. They should look after the smaller piglet from time to time. When feeding time comes they should help the smaller piglet to position there self better etc.

kaya lalong lumiliit yun mga less than 1 kilo kasi if feeding time comes usually naooverpower sila ng malalaking piglets.

Maraming Salamat Doc Nemo.
GOD BLESS.

Group the piglets according to sizes para d naagawan ng pagkain ang mga maliliit.

Thanks Sir Wrangler. It was already done.

Doc Nemo,

Gud evening,

Ask ko lang po kung pwede pang pagsamahin ang biik na may edad na 2 buwan na nanggaling sa magkaibang kulungan. Dati po kc nasubukan namin pagsamahin pero ndi pa ganito ang edad, mga 1 mothn lang cla. Sayang po kc ang space ng kulungan kaya balak ko pagsamahin. Ano po kaya magandang paraan para hindi sila magaway ng matagal? Worry ko lang po kc baka kc maistress, baka magkasakit pa.

Please advice.

Thank you,

Jim   

You have to monitor them, taga awat pag nag aaway. Most of the time there would be fights. 1-2 days sila nag aaway.

Some put some play materials like buko or nakabitin na sako so attention would be diverted.
IF hindi naman gagamitin yun kulungan wag na lang nila ipagsama.

Thanks Doc.... and More Power!!!

doc, would you suggest auto feeder para di naman maiwan ng husto yong maliliit na kulig?
thanks po,

yes, autofeeder kapag walay na sila

ask lang po mas mainam po bang sa weaning pen ibubukod ang lalaki sa mga babae na piglets???
salamat

mas magandang hindi na....

For economic reason, masyadong maraming pen na maaksaya...
2nd, kung magmimix ka naman ng ibang lalaki or babae galing sa ibat ibang inahin may tendecy na mag away away yang mga yan...

Doc,

Good Day!

Doc, ask ko lang po kung gaano kadami ang ipapakain sa baboy for 1 day... 2 months pa po alaga namin.... at ano po ba magandang vaccine kasi po napansin ko na medyo mabagal ang unlad ng baboy... please me ....

Salamat

Check nalang nila ito about tamang pagpapakain ng baboy

tungkol naman sa vaccine, ang vaccine kasi is area specific , depende kung ano ang tumatama sa area mo yun ang ibibigay mo. ANg basic dapat meron kang hog cholera and mycoplasma vaccine sa mga fattener ...
