Another big lItter of pigs

jon f mn · Feb 15, 2023

Had another litter born yesterday. Not quite as big as the other, but still big for a first litter. She had 17 total with 15 born alive.

This gilt is ki da snippy with her pugs, no damage yet, but I'm not impressed. She did kill 4 of the other litter before I got her out of the pen. After a week I put her back in and she was fine then. We will have to see how many she keeps alive to determine if she gets to stay.

The other litter is at 11 left right now and that should be the final number.

Jon, do you use a boar or breed them AI?

You definitely want to keep some gilts back from them large litters.

A boar, just got him at the sale barn. No idea of his history. He was just full grown and untried when I got him.

its not the boar it was the gilt she had a large # of eggs when she was in heat due to body temp thats why they should be fed hi ration of CORN.
