When do you usually choose to breed new sows? What are the points for attention?

First, when do you usually choose to breed new sows?

In general, the month of breeding new sows begins between January and February, and then farmers carry out scientific management in feed, breeding, domestication, environment, and so on, so that good sows can be cultivated at last, but in these processes, there are many things that need to be paid attention to, and these matters directly affect the birth rate and survival rate of reserve sows, so farmers must pay attention to them.

Second, what are the points for attention in breeding new sows?

1. Environment

After many reserve sows grow to a certain extent, they can be pregnant and give birth, but some sows are not in estrus, so farmers feel very depressed. In fact, this phenomenon has a lot to do with the environment. After sows are mature, they are usually in estrus with boars, but sometimes such a situation occurs. For example, the environment in the pigsty is not very good, it is dirty and messy, and there is an unpleasant smell in the air. There will also be a stuffy feeling, and such a bad environment will lead to the stunting of sows, thus causing them not to be in estrus, so farmers should pay attention to this point, be sure to clean the pigsty in time, disinfect it regularly and ventilate it, and don't let the environment hinder the growth and development of reserve sows.

2. Feeding

From the previous content, we can know that the feed of backup sows is different from that of live pigs, so when feeding them, we should raise them separately, so that they will not cause sows to mistakenly eat the feed of live pigs while eating, and effectively avoid the mutual grabbing between them. at the same time, when farmers manage them, they will be more convenient and convenient, and there are many benefits of raising them in separate columns. When farmers are free, they can inspect the farms more often, and once any problems are found, they can deal with them in time. Usually, some conditions and health conditions of sow production are recorded, which greatly improves the growth quality of sows.

3. Feed

The breeding of new sows, general farmers also call them reserve sows, based on their particularity, so when feeding them, farmers need to pay more attention to them. Some farmers will choose to buy reserve sows from outside, and when they buy them back, they generally have little weight. In order to fatten them, they need to make efforts on feed and feed them with more protein content. It is also necessary to maintain a balanced and adequate nutrition in the feed, so that in the later stage of their growth, they can better deliver estrogen, and in the final production, it can be more energetic, so in feeding, the feed of sows is different from that of live pigs, and farmers must pay attention to this.

4. Domestication

Some sows have a strong character, which is not conducive to late pregnancy, so farmers have to domesticate such sows at this time to make their character more docile. What farmers need to do is to start this operation when sows are young. They can domesticate them like domesticated dogs and kittens, teach them some passwords, let them act according to their own passwords, and care for them more. Often touch them, for a long time, they will listen to farmers, temperament will become more docile.
