What should I do if my piglet eats corn diarrhea?

Recently, a friend asked: Is the piglet eating corn diarrhea the reason for corn? We may analyze the factors of piglet diarrhea. Experience tells us that when animals are raised, they are afraid of pulling when they are not afraid of spitting. Once the animal has a diarrhea, especially a baby, it is likely to cause death. So what are the factors that cause piglets to diarrhea, and how to prevent piglets from diarrhea? You will know after reading this article!

First, what is the reason for piglets diarrhea?

Piglet diarrhea is a common disease, which is characterized by squatting, weight loss, rough hair, mental wilting, and often death due to dehydration, which is one of the important causes of piglet death.

How to ensure the survival rate of piglets is very important to improve the breeding efficiency. The cause of diarrhea in piglets is more complicated, which is the result of a combination of various factors:

1. The immune system is not well developed.

The newborn piglets mainly obtain immunoglobulin through breast milk, and cannot produce strong resistance to various pathogenic bacteria from the outside. When invaded by bacterial pathogens or viral pathogens, it can cause diarrhea.

2. The ability to adapt is low.

The nervous system of newborn piglets is not yet fully developed, with short hair and thin subcutaneous fat, and poor regulation of body temperature. Once the temperature suddenly changes, the wind and other conditions will easily lead to diarrhea.

3, gastrointestinal function is not perfect.

Piglets have weaker digestive functions and less digestive enzymes. Once excessive protein is ingested, it will lead to digestive disorders, causing indigestion and leading to diarrhea.

4. Parasites.

Mainly Eimeria and Isospora coccidia and swine mites, esophageal nematodes, hairy nematodes, and nematodes are nematode parasitic in the digestive tract causing piglet diarrhea.

5. Other factors.

Including sows without postpartum milk, premature weaning, sudden separation of mother and child, changes in feeding environment, feed changes and so on.

The main component of corn is carbohydrates, and the protein content is not high. It is not appropriate to give the pot to the corn. Corn may be an inducement, but once again, the piglet diarrhea is the result of a combination of factors, and comprehensive prevention measures should be taken.

Second, piglets diarrhea prevention measures

Only by strengthening management, maintaining the stability and cleanliness of the pig house environment, grasping the birth control, feeding and weaning of piglets, and strengthening immunization work, together with drug prevention, can effectively reduce the incidence of piglet diarrhea.

In case of diarrhea in piglets, it is necessary to find early treatment, antibacterial and hydration combined.

For diarrhea caused by bacterial pathogen infection: use norfloxacin, gentamicin, chloramphenicol, sulfonamides and other micro-ecological preparations such as probiotics, probiotics, etc. for treatment. In order to prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalance in piglets, combined with oral rehydration (3.5 g of sodium chloride, 2.5 g of potassium hydrogen sulfate, 1.5 g of potassium chloride, 20 g of glucose, and 1 000 mL of warm water), satisfactory therapeutic effects can be obtained.

For the diarrhea caused by the virus, there is no specific drug treatment, mainly through strengthening feeding management and vaccine prevention, symptomatic therapy, oral microecological preparations, preventing secondary infections to reduce the mortality caused by viral diarrhea.

For diarrhea caused by parasitic diseases, mainly through reasonable deworming, pregnant sows should be dewormed 3 months before and 7 days before birth, and the pig houses should be cleaned frequently to treat the feces harmlessly.

Studies have shown that sows are fed with 25-65 mg/kg body weight of amprolium hydrochloride 7 days before and during postpartum lactation, mixed with mixed food or mixed drink for 7 days, and have very good diarrhea caused by coccidiosis. Good preventive effect.
