Pregnant sows need to choose a suitable time before transferring to a pen. It is best to transfer them in the early stages of pregnancy. Transferring them too early or too late will increase the risk of not adapting to the environment.

Prepare a comfortable environment

Before transferring the sows to the new pen, make sure the environment is comfortable, quiet and the temperature is appropriate to avoid excessive stress on the sows.

Step by step guidance of the sow

When transferring sows, you can guide them step by step and avoid using violence. You can use food, sound, etc. to guide sows into the new pen.

Pay attention to feeding management

After transferring to a pen, pay close attention to the sow's diet and behavior, detect abnormal conditions in time and deal with them promptly to ensure the health of the sow and fetuses.

Tips:

• Don’t be too impatient: The transfer process requires patient guidance and you should not rush for quick results.
• Maintain ventilation: New pens must maintain good ventilation conditions to avoid discomfort for sows.
• Regular inspections: Regularly check the health status of sows after transfer to the pen to detect problems in time.
