At this stage, suckling pigs are most prone to red and yellow dysentery, and the mortality rate is extremely high, which is also very easy to treat. Common antibiotics such as penicillin and gentamicin have good effects. As long as they are found in time, there is generally no death.
72-day-old suckling pigs
At this stage, suckling pigs suffer the most from white dysentery, and the mortality rate is not high, but long-term diarrhea can lead to growth stagnation, exhaustion and death, and then become stiff pigs. There are various reasons for white dysentery in suckling pigs, and the most important ones are generally the temperature environment and breast milk. Once diarrhea occurs, we should first pay attention to heat preservation and dry environment, and then we can use some antibiotics to treat it with oral medication. If the drugs are not effective for two days, then the problems are generally in the sows. At this time, we should wean piglets decisively, and it is very effective to feed mequindox every 812 heads with milk substitute and inject antibiotics.
Let's talk about the 26-day-old pigs. This stage is the transition from weaning to piglet feeding, which includes a series of stress reaction transition from castration to herd transfer. Diarrhea will occur if the feeding management is not paid attention to, and it is easy to die.
1. First of all, don't feed all weaned ~ high-protein feed over 2 days old! It's best to cook pumpkin, sweet potato and other things rich in vitamins with corn flour and feed them.
2. For serious injection drugs, 2W4W units/head of penicillin, 2ML of antiphlogistic and 1 ml of gentamicin (5W units) can be mixed and injected for piglets to relieve inflammation and pain and prevent gastrointestinal tract inflammation and ulceration, and then 24ML of Macleaya cordata injection or mesylate can be injected for each head, and one needle can be injected separately from penicillin. Pay attention to the amount of pigs, not too much. Otherwise, you will die of poisoning.
3. It is best not to use Pulsatilla powder for oral medicine, because the effect is not very good. Generally speaking, Chinese medicine has an ideal effect on pig fever diseases, but it is not as good as western medicine for digestive tract diseases. It is best to use mequindox, which has a good effect, and secondly, Xieliting sold by people's pharmacies has a good effect. In fact, diarrhea in piglets is a disease that is well controlled. Piglets in my own pig farm rarely die because of diarrhea. I show others that pigs can generally be cured as long as they are not severely dehydrated and unstable to walk.
4. Oral medication plays a major role in digestive tract diseases, and the effect of injection medication is far less than that of oral medication. It can only play an auxiliary role. Therefore, please be sure to do a good job in this respect. Piglets that can't feed on their own should be fed. As long as these are done well, two doses of medicine and two injections can generally cure them.
