CATDOLL: Tips for piglet feed conversion: How to convert feed scientifically

Feed conversion for piglets is a very important part of the breeding process. Reasonable feed conversion can ensure the healthy growth of piglets and improve breeding efficiency. This article will introduce the basic principles and implementation steps of feed conversion for piglets.

Principles of piglet feed change

Before changing feed for piglets, we need to clarify the following principles:

  • Smooth transition: The digestive system of piglets is relatively sensitive, and a smooth transition is required when changing feed to avoid excessive burden on digestion and absorption.
  • Change feed at the right time: Choose the appropriate time to change feed according to the piglets' growth stage and feeding needs.
  • Scientific configuration: According to the nutritional needs of piglets, new feed is rationally configured to ensure its nutritional balance.
  • Monitoring and observation: After changing feed, it is necessary to closely observe the piglets' appetite, feces, etc., and adjust feeding and management measures in time.

Steps for piglet feed change

Here are the specific steps for piglet feed change:

  1. Feed selection: Choose appropriate feed according to the growth stage and feeding needs of the piglets.
  2. Gradual transition: gradually add new feed to the original feed, mix the new and old feed in proportion, and gradually increase the proportion of new feed.
  3. Adjust the ratio: According to the piglets' adaptability, gradually increase the ratio of new feed and gradually reduce the ratio of old feed until it is completely converted to new feed.
  4. Monitoring and observation: After the piglets are fed a new feed, it is necessary to closely observe their appetite, feces, etc., and adjust feeding and management measures in a timely manner.

Precautions for piglet feed change

When changing feed for piglets, you also need to pay attention to the following matters:

  • Strictly control the transition time: During the feed conversion process, a transition time that is too long will cause feed waste, while a transition time that is too short will easily cause digestion problems.
  • Maintain stable feed quality: Before switching feed, it is necessary to ensure that the quality of the new feed is stable to avoid poor adaptation of piglets due to differences in feed quality.
  • Control feed supply: After feed conversion, it is necessary to adjust feed supply in time according to the actual needs of piglets to avoid over- or under-feeding.
  • Pay attention to the adaptation of the digestive system: During the feed change process, special attention should be paid to the adaptation of the piglet's digestive system. Abnormal conditions such as diarrhea need to be dealt with in a timely manner.

Through the above steps and precautions, we can scientifically change the feed for piglets to ensure the healthy growth of piglets and improve breeding efficiency.
