What are the methods for training young boars for first mating?

    Since young boars are mostly raised in isolation, they often have no opportunity to learn how to mount a sow and mate with her. If they encounter a sow that is not well in heat, or are placed in a pen with many sows, several unsuccessful attempts may cause them to lose the courage to mate again. Therefore, the first mating of a young boar requires an experienced breeder to ensure successful mating. For the first mating, a small multiparous sow that is well in heat should be chosen. After the boar mounts, do not rush to grasp the penis with your hand; wait until the penis has made several unsuccessful attempts, then use your hand to assist mating, to prevent the boar from backing off because it is not accustomed to it. For boars that have sexual desire but do not mount, gently massage the penis with your hand, and when their excitement rises, assist them in mounting and mating.
