So, in your case you said that at 2 months you have noticed that the sows belly stops from growing and on the day of farrowing it give 15 piglets that are not develop.
 If it looks like this it is called mummified.



The certain cause of this is that your animal had a problem during the late first to second months of pregnancy.

Problem includes nutritional, environmental or microorganism.

In your case it could be microorganism.  Possibly parvovirus.

Parvo virus is the usual suspect if there is huge mummified  piglets born.

I rule out nutritional because possibly both of you sow eats the same brand.
and also ruled out enviromental for i do believe they are confined in one housing only.

This is just all assumption for i didn't see personally your sow.

There is a vaccine for parvo virus that you could try. Just ask your local agrivet about it.

Doc my sow are okay.. parang walang ngyari.. kasi at that month na kumalat sa nueva ecija ang sakit na nabalita.. ng kataon buntis sya.. then di nmn sya tinamaan ng sakit.. now malakas nmn..at nabulugan na ulit..yung ngyari sa kanya ng first pregnant nya.. or yung nag kakaroon ng ganun.. nakakapag anak paba ng maayos ,may chansa pabang maging normal sa pangalawa.. .. kasi sya lng talaga.. may nga kasabay sya normal nmn..

Hi Doc Nemo, Pwede po ba bigyan ng parvo virus vaccine ang nagbubuntis pa lang na sow (62 days pregnant)? ganyan din po kasi ang nangyari sa kanya nung una nyang panganganak 12 lahat ang inilabas at 5 ang mummified bale 7 lang ang nabuhay sa unang panganganak nya. Mauulit po ba ang nangyari sa una nyang panganganak kapag hindi naineksyonan ng parvo virus vaccine?

[nemo]

Vaccine in pregnant sow is usually given late pregnancy from 6 weeks prior to farrowing.

It should not be given during the first, second trimester and early trimester cause it might cause abortion or still birth.

If you have experience this problem the sow is now considered as a carrier but unlike before it has now have some immunity from the disease.

THis immunity will lessen the problem or mummified born.

By given a vaccine the immunity of the animal will increase thus making the animal more resistant to the disease.

THe probability of giving birth to mummified fetus will always be there what the vaccine will do is to lessen the chances that this will happen.

Whether your sow will give birth to mummified this next batch is uncertain but still prevention would be a nice plan of action

[nemo]

hi doc nemo, nanganak na po ang inahin ko na may 5 mummyfied fetus noong una nyang panganganak. ang 2nd time na panganganak nya ay 14 lahat ang anak 7 babae at 7 lalake, ngunit meron pa ding isang hindi nabuo.  noong una po kasi ay bumibili lang ako sa kaibigan ko na nagmimix ng pagkain ngunit nung may 5 mummyfied fetus na ipinanganak ay hindi na ako bumili ng pagkain sa kaibigan ko. Ang boar na ipinambulog ko po ay duroc, landrace po ang inahin ko. Ano po kaya ang naging problema? posible po bang magkaanak pa din ang inahin ko ng mummyfied fetus sa 3rd time nyang panganganak?

[nemo]

Sa cause medyo mahirap mapinpoint, possible bacterial, possible pa rin na  environment. Habang dumadami po ang alaga nyong inahin medyo dumadami din ang case ng mummified. Kung paisa isa na lang considered as statistic na lang ito.

Sa tingin ko tumataas na ang immunity ng animal mo sa sakit na nagcause ng mummified sa kanya. From 5 to 1 is considered improvement. Hopefully next na panganganak nya ay totally wla na sanang mummified. Continue your vaccination and  disinfection of housing.

Doc nemo balak ko kasing kumuha ng gagawin kong gilt sa anak ng inahin ko, namamana po ba ang pag-anak ng mummyfied fetus at ang pag-anak ng marami? malulusog at malalakas po kasi ang mga biik.

[nemo]

The disease cannot be inherited but there is a possibility that the animal would be a carrier and a shedder. Meaning the piglets will have the same bacteria and when it becomes a sow the probability of mummified will be high.

simple translation: the sow that give birth 5 mummified last time farrowed again for the second time with 14 piglets although 1 is still mumified. He used to buy mix feeds before, he used a duroc boar and his sow is a landrace. What could be the cost of the problem? is it possible that my sow will farrow next time with mumified piglets again?

the cause is difficult to pinpoint, bacterial and environment is a possible suspect. If the number of sow increases the number of mumified cases also increases. If you are having mumified but not that often/many it is considered as a statistic.

I think immunity of your animal to the disease is already increasing. From 5 to 1 is considered as improvement. Hopefully next farriwing there will be no mumified at all. Continue your vaccination and disinfection of housing.

Doc nemo balak ko kasing kumuha ng gagawin kong gilt sa anak ng inahin ko, namamana po ba ang pag-anak ng mummyfied fetus at ang pag-anak ng marami? malulusog at malalakas po kasi ang mga biik.

I want to produce a gilt out of that sow, is giving birth to a mumified could be inherited? The pig is strong and healthy.

The disease cannot be inherited but there is a possibility that the animal would be a carrier and a shedder. Meaning the piglets will have the same bacteria and when it becomes a sow the probability of mummified will be high.

doc, puede po bang maging cause nito ay stress during prenancy?
thanks po,

[nemo]

Stress could cause mummified, heat stress, environmental stress etc...

noted po, thanks po doc sa mga reply

What i use before is Farrowsure.

Doc ok lang kaya na farrowsure na ang gagamitin ko before manganak yung sows ko, kasi fortdoge daw ginagamit ng pinagbilihan ko ng breeder farm. Hindi kaya magkaconflict yung gnamit nila before nila binenta at yung gagamitin ko ngayon na farrowsure? Magkaiba kasi ata ang administration nitong dalawang PLE vaccine na ito.
