Sows refuse to breast-feed, also known as sow breast-feeding aversion is a disease, often occurs in the first delivery of sows. There are many situations: first, the first sow is lack of experience, so it should be trained patiently. After the sow lies down, squat beside it and scratch its belly so that it can be fed quietly, and the piglets are not allowed to compete for nipples. You can get used to breast-feeding after a few times. If the sow can massage its breasts in the later stage of pregnancy, the effect will be better. The second is when piglets compete for nipples, or individual piglets have incorrect teeth, too long and sharp, biting sows' nipples and refusing to breast-feed. To strengthen care, do not let pigs compete with each other for nipples, and use scissors to flatten the pig's sharp canine teeth.
