How to Fatten Pigs Quickly? Just Do These 5 Things Well

Nowadays there are more and more pig farmers, and many people want to get ahead of others in fattening their pigs, bringing them to market early to improve their market competitiveness, but many friends don't know how to do it. In fact,fast fattening of pigs is very simple - just do these 5 things well!

1. Dry and wet feed

The advantages of feeding pigs with dry feed are low cost, easy storage, and the leftovers are not prone to spoilage; compared with wet feed, it will not make the pig house damp. But the disadvantages are that dry feed tastes too poor and easily gets covered with dust, so many pigs are unwilling to eat it, and it easily causes a series of digestive tract diseases in the pigs that eat it. Wet feed tastes better to pigs and is easy to absorb. Generally, mixing dry feed with water makes wet feed, which not only improves the taste but also provides water to the pig's body, so generally speaking it is better to feed wet feed. However, be careful to promptly clean up the leftover feed to prevent spoilage.

2. Fermented feed

If conditions permit, you can supplement the pigs' feed with some fermented feed, because fermented feed tastes even better than wet feed. Experiments have shown that after eating fermented feed, pigs' feed intake increases noticeably. Fermented feed can also increase the pigs' nutrition, promote absorption, and the gastrointestinal tract can be protected by microorganisms, enhancing their own resistance, reducing the incidence of disease, and providing greater protection for the healthy growth of the pigs.

3. Ensure water supply

Water is the most important thing for pigs. Especially in summer, under high temperatures, pigs sweat a lot, increasing the rate of water loss in the body, and nutrient transport and blood circulation in the pig's body all require a large amount of water. Sufficient drinking water can ensure the normal development of the pigs, allow them to metabolize better, promote digestion, and absorb nutrients. So in daily management, always keep water in the trough for the pigs to drink freely. In summer, change the water frequently to avoid spoilage caused by excessively high temperatures.

4. Feed at fixed times

Many friends feed their pigs at inconsistent times and in different amounts when raising pigs, but feeding at fixed times and in fixed amounts, so that the pigs develop good eating habits, is very beneficial for fattening. It lets the pigs maintain a full appetite for eating each time, but the feed must also be sufficient to ensure every pig can eat its fill; otherwise it is not conducive to the pigs putting on fat and affects the growth of pigs that have not eaten enough.

5. Prevention and treatment of pig diseases

Only when pigs are in good, healthy condition can they fatten well, and only a healthy constitution allows pigs to absorb nutrients at their best. So pigs must be strictly monitored. Moldy feed must not be fed to pigs, to prevent respiratory and digestive tract diseases in the pigs. No matter what disease it is, it will affect the pigs' appetite and affect fattening. So be sure to keep the pig house clean and hygienic, remove all sources of pathogens, and vaccinate regularly to reduce the incidence of disease.
