RECOMMENDATIONS AT CARRYING OUT the FARROW AND to RECEPTION of NEWBORN PIGS
The farrow of pigs occurs on the average in 114 days, though are possible a kolebayoniya from 106 to 124 days. In advance in a shelter where the suporosny sow contains, it is necessary otdelit a place for pigs, the size 1,5-2 on 1,5-2 m. Here it is necessary to equip a lodge for newborns from plywood, a particleboard and other materials. Its size about 1 on 1 m, in one of its walls it is necessary to make dverka that in need of pigs it would be possible zakryt. The protection in which the lodge is established, should be strong that the sviyonomatka didn’t break it and was isolated from pigs. The floor indoors should be wooden, a laying – straw or shaving. And a laying in such lodge it is necessary stlat surely. Over a lodge it is necessary to establish an infra-red lamp for heating and in a day – two before childbirth to include to warm up a surface of a floor, walls.
REMEMBER, if the sow was in other room, in a place where will pass oporos, it it is necessary to translate a minimum one week prior to childbirth. In this case the animal privyknet to it also won’t be worries in childbirth. Indoors it is necessary to put things in order: regular cleaning to eliminate drafts, to establish lamps for lighting. At transfer of a sow to her new place it is necessary pochistit, to wash and rub off a back part of a trunk, a mammary gland.
Indoors there should be a first-aid kit, and in it: cotton wool, a gauze, 5 % – j spirtovy solution of iodine, a powder of potassium permanganate or furacillin, scissors, shelkoyovy threads, injektsionny syringes, oxytocin, ferriferous preparations, vitaminy, nippers for removal of canines. Except medicines matter enough for rubdown of newborns is required.
How to define approach of childbirth? It is very important and responsible moyoment, it can’t be missed. Therefore it is necessary to observe attentively for sostoyaniyoy pigs. Before childbirth in a day – two it lowers a stomach, i.e. becomes more loose-hanging. From external genitals slime is allocated. In day of childbirth the female becomes very uneasy, especially, if gives birth for the first time. At it will decrease, or appetite at all will be gone. Besides, she can run on a cage, dig a laying, carry straw in one corner, as though preparing a nest. Very important sign – emergence moloziva. It is necessary to cost accurately a nipple if there are streams of a whitish secret (colostrum), childbirth can already begin through 2-12chasov. Sometimes colostrum poyavlyaetsya one days prior to childbirth.
It is very important, that the animal got used to the person delivering. It is necessary to remember that indoors where will pass a farrow, emergence of the poyostoronny isn’t admissible. To supervise the course of childbirth obligatory, however it is necessary to remember that neyokotory females very much worry in the presence of the owner. In this case follows udalitsya and to conduct supervision through a window. However it is possible also opposite when the pig before childbirth very strongly grunts, "calls" the owner and then gives birth at his presence. Here the individual approach is important.
In the beginning childbirth waters depart that not always it is possible to catch, but the laying will be humidified. The sow lies on one side, makes an effort, muscles of a stomach are reduced, and here, the first pig at last is born. It is necessary to approach, take silently it, a pure rag to release a mouth from slime, to wipe a nose. The umbilical cord is necessary for tearing off (not to cut off) at distance of 4-5 cm from a navel, it can be made, having squeezed umbilical kanatik between nails. If in a place of a gap bleeding is noted, the umbilical cord should be tied up a rough silk thread, but usually such neobkhodiyomost arises seldom. Then, the tip of an umbilical cord should be processed iodine.
After that, holding the newborn for back extremities, it is necessary carefully, but carefully to rub off his body from slime. Thus he can even start to "shout" that, in principle, it is desirable, since thus his lungs finish better, and the top respiratory ways are quicker released from slime. The only thing that it is necessary to remember, the woman in labor can begin to worry, and childbirth for a while will stop. Therefore it is better to depart with a pig far away or to leave this room. Then the newborn we put in a lodge where it dries under a lamp. As soon as it podnyalsya and independently moves, he can be put to a mammary gland of mother. It will find a nipple, will start it to suck. Thus in blood of a pig oxytocin level raises, and childbirth will be accelerated.
The birth of pigs in a shirt, i.e. in okoloplodny obolochke is sometimes possible. Though it occurs seldom, but it is possible, and as at the beginning, so in the middle or at the end of a farrow. And then the destiny of the newborn is solved by seconds. It is necessary to break off urgently(!) a cover and to take a fruit, to release respiratory ways from slizi, in case of absence of breath through 4 layers of a gauze to try to make iskusstvenyony breath. To recover a pig sometimes it is possible within 5 minutes after the delivery, pozzhe – it is inefficient.
Pigs are born with an interval from 15 minutes till 2 o’clock. If childbirth for any reason is tightened, at an animal attempts are observed, but the births not proisxodit, surely it is necessary to address to the expert who will examine a rozheyonitsa, will eliminate violation. In this case it is impossible to hesitate!
After the delivery at a sow usually within half an hour (is more rare – till 3 o’clock) otdelyaetsya the placenta, is more often – several parts. Sometimes parts it are allocated interfood with the birth of pigs. Surely it is necessary to remove, not to give to a pig to eat it since disorders of digestion are possible.
Pigs place in a lodge that they dried. Temperature in it is mute at level of a floor there should be not lower 29-31 °C. It is reached by lokalyyony (local) heating by means of heating lamps. After all pigs dried and can move, they can be admitted to mother that they sucked colostrum. Remember, the earlier they will drink the first portion, the more protective factors (antibodies) will be acquired in an organism of newborns. The first kormleyony is desirable for beginning no later than 1,5-2 hours after the birth.
