What should be paid attention to in raising pet pigs in winter

Christmas is coming. I don't know if your pig has become lazy. If you like to eat dinner, go to sleep in the nest. 1-year-old pigs should have changed their hair and greeted the winter with hard and black hair. What do you need to pay attention to in raising pet pigs in winter? In the final analysis, it is just two words-keep warm!

Xiang pigs are really afraid of the cold. Newborn piglets need to be warmed by light bulbs, especially those bred in the north. The climate in the north is cold in winter, because it is cold and heated, which is a great advantage. To put it simply, the precautions for raising pigs in winter:

1. Room temperature above 20 degrees is more suitable for pigs, even so, a warm nest is essential, this nest needs to reach the quilt level.

two。 Try not to go out. If you must, put on warm clothes and go out on a sunny day. Once there was a piglet who went out to play in the snow and came back with respiratory disease and then turned into pneumonia. This is no joke, the disease is fatal. The older the pig is, the stronger the anti-freezing ability is, and the fat pigs who are more than eight or nine months old will not be too afraid. It will not be a problem to go out and defecate, but not for too long.

3. Winter diet should be a little more appropriate, so that pigs eat enough calories to keep out the cold. In addition, don't forget to let pigs eat a certain amount of fruits and vegetables in winter to prevent pigs from getting angry when spring comes.

4. There is no heating in the south, and the room temperature may be relatively low in winter. Special attention should be paid to the warm measures when pigs sleep.

5. Be sure to blow dry when taking a bath, and you can wipe pigs with super absorbent towels, such as women's hair wiping. Pay attention to bath frequency, the winter climate is dry, pig skin is too dry will peel, to maintain a proper bath frequency is very necessary, can be once a week to two weeks. If you find that the pig's hoof is cracked, you should also apply something moisturizing.

Pig activity decreases in winter, like to sleep in a warm nest, as long as you have a place for him pig, pig winter is actually very simple. The really dangerous seasons are early spring and late autumn. My pig got angry for the first time in spring, and his eyes were so swollen that he was basically blind. But what really made me realize that the terrible thing about spring is the second spring, where bad news can be heard almost every day in the group. Some piglets die of diarrhea, some get sick, and the mortality rate of pigs is much higher than that in winter and summer. It seems that all things revive in spring, the virus and bacteria are also brilliant, so let pigs have a good winter, and so on the arrival of spring can go out to play.
