Do piglets have to use nursery beds after sow farrowing?
Piglet nursing bed, also known as piglet nursing pen, is mainly used to raise weaned piglets after 35 days. Because piglets have weak resistance and are greatly affected by the environment, if there is no nursing transition, the survival rate of piglets will be greatly reduced. Therefore, the piglet nursing bed is an indispensable pig raising equipment for pig farms.
Piglet nursery beds are currently on the market with a length of 2.2 meters, a width of 3.6 meters, and a height of about 70 cm. It can be used by 2 litters of piglets. It has 18 pieces of 60*70 cm plastic slatted boards, 4 flower beams, 7 beams. The benefits of raising piglets in nursery beds are:
1. Nursing beds can help pigs reduce transfer stress. Piglets are housed in farrowing beds before transfer. The nursing bed is similar to the piglet activity pen on the farrowing bed, which helps piglets adapt to the breeding environment as soon as possible and reduces stress.
2. The nursery bed helps to isolate the feces and reduce the incidence of piglets. There are 30 nursery beds on the ground. The height of the plastic manure leakage floor can provide a clean, dry, warm and fresh growth environment for pigs, thereby reducing the sickness rate of pigs and improving the production efficiency of pig farms.
3. Easy to manage. There are about 15 piglets. Large pig farms should manage dozens of piglets at the same time. The task is heavy. Using a piglet care bed is different. The piglet nursing pen is mainly composed of a slatted floor, a fence and an automatic trough. Pig farms only need to set up manure and urine ditch under the nursing bed, which can save daily cleaning labor. In addition, pig farms can easily realize large-scale management of piglets by sending people to record the growth and health status of each piglet every day.
The piglet care bed can provide a healthy and comfortable environment and a safe activity space for piglets. It provides good sanitation, prevents bioaccumulation and bacterial growth, and reduces piglet disease. Reduce farmers' costs and increase income.
