What are the advantages of using sow birth bed?

The sow farrowing bed is also called high breeding farrowing pen, which is mainly composed of sow positioning frame, piglet pen, piglet incubator, excrement leakage floor, sow feeding trough and piglet feeding trough. The function of the sow positioning frame is to control the free movement area and lying mode of the sow, and there are bars between the sow birth bed frames to prevent the piglets from being crushed, trampled and crushed. The length of the positioning frame is generally 2.1-2.3 meters, the width is 0.6 meters, and the height is 1.0 meters. A curved post is welded on the bottom rail of the limit frame to protect the piglets without affecting their feeding. The sow trough and water fountain are in front of the positioning rack.

Piglet pens provide space for piglets to move around and prevent them from running out. There are two kinds of fence: grid bar type and partition type. The grid type is beneficial to ventilation and observation, but not to epidemic prevention. The partition plate is beneficial to epidemic prevention but the cost is relatively high. The piglet pen is 2.0- 2.3m long, 1.7- 1.8m wide and 0.5- 0.6m high. The grid spacing is not more than 40mm. The piglet feeding groove and drinking water container are installed at the rear of the pen. The feces are stored in the feces discharge area at the rear. The piglet birth bed floor consists of plastic floor and cast iron floor.
