I. What should I do if the sow does not have a high fever after childbirth?

Sows postpartum fever does not retreat, need to adjust nutrition, clear away heat and detoxify, improve feeding conditions. The following measures could be taken:

1. Move pigs quickly to shade and ventilation.

2. Sick pig ear tip and tail bloodletting, promote blood circulation.

3. In vitro physical cooling was carried out by rubbing breasts and hairless parts with white spirit.

5.10% vitamin C intramuscular injection, oral rehydration salts ad libitum drinking water, continuous for three days.

1. Extensive feeding management, not according to the nutritional law increase or decrease feed

Different nutritional standards should be followed during the first, second and third trimester of pregnancy. Feed them differently. In order to reduce the cost, most farmers in rural areas add less or no sow concentrate during pregnancy, but use a large number of distillers 'grains, chaff, rice husk powder and a small amount of corn with lower nutritional prices to maintain life, resulting in unbalanced protein and energy, resulting in nutritional deficiency. Before and after parturition, the sow was fed a large amount of energy feed, which led to postpartum prostration, insufficient blood sugar and calcium, decreased immunity, and easy to induce the occurrence of the disease.

2. Poor environmental management and ventilation

Summer and autumn season, rural heatstroke prevention and cooling work is not in place, pigsty temperature is high. There is also a habit of giving less water and not ventilating pigs in childbirth. When they give birth at high temperature, they will produce a lot of heat and cannot be dissipated. Due to poor ventilation, ammonia in the pigsty is aggravated, air quality is poor, and oxygen is insufficient, which is most likely to cause postpartum diseases in sows.

3. Lack of preventive administration

In the prophase of parturition, preventive administration should be carried out according to the rules of disease occurrence. Generally, pigs are most prone to postpartum eating, fever and other diseases, timely administration can reduce the occurrence of such diseases.

Sows postpartum to pay attention to nutrition management and hygiene management, to ensure the health of sows, so that piglets can grow better.
