castration for piglet

[engeng33]

how do we castrate  piglet?

[nemo]

Piglet castration procedure:

1. Clean the scrotum of the animal.
2. Then press the scrotum using your thumb and 2nd finger until it bulge.
3. While holding the scrotum use a blade or scalpel to incised at the highest part of the first testicle.
    Incision should be deep enough that it would also cut/incised a portion  of the testicle.
4. Then press the scortum until the testicle pop out.
5. Once the testicle pop out pull it gently then use a forceps to clamp the cord that is connected to the testicle. and use another forceps on top of it.
6. You would then have two forceps on top of one another.
7. Rotate the top forceps while holding the lower forceps maybe 3-4 times then use the scalpel to cut in between the two forceps.
8. Now put a antiseptic to the remaining cord and push it back to the incision.
9.  Do the same on the other testicle.

doc, can we use burdizzo for pig castration or does it have to be on an incision method?

How about spay?

[nemo]

incision method po talaga, ang burdizzo kasi meron time na hindi nagreregress ang testicle kaya pag laki nung animal lumalaki pa rin yun testicle nito.

Spay, technically it means removal of ovaries ng animal.

burdizzo is a mechanical device that is used for ruminant for castration.

Yun incision method naman is the common practice sa castration ng pigs

It is not applicable in pigs.
Usually for cat and dog ito
