What to do when piglets defecate while eating? Teach you the correct way to deal with it
Nowadays, due to factors such as the breeding management of pig farms and substandard feed, more and more piglet diseases are occurring, and many diseases cause endless trouble for breeders. Among them, piglets defecating while eating is a very common symptom, so how should it be treated? Below, Shuaishuai will introduce to you what to do when encountering this situation!

1. Pica
Most piglets have this phenomenon. Many piglets like to eat things that their stomach and intestines cannot digest, such as bran that has not been soaked. After piglets eat it, they will pass feces with a sour fragrance. What the piglets eat is not digested and will be directly excreted from the body, but they like to eat it, so they often defecate while eating.
2. Indigestion
Because of long-term poor gastrointestinal function, the nutrients in the food ingested by piglets cannot be absorbed. The piglets' bodies lack gastric acid, and the food cannot be broken down through the stomach and intestines, so all the food they eat is wasted, with no absorption, and it accumulates in the intestinal tract and is excreted from the body.
3. Parasitic disease
This is almost the main culprit for most cases of defecating while eating. Because besides feed, the food pigs usually eat is relatively miscellaneous, parasites such as roundworms are very likely to breed in the body. Once parasites breed, they will cause symptoms such as poor appetite, back pain and a large belly, and pigs suffering from this disease will have a symptom of eating a very large amount but growing very slowly, so this disease can be discovered with more observation. First, after discovering the disease, we should buy some deworming drugs for the piglets to take. During deworming, food should be withheld, and the medicine should be taken on an empty stomach the next morning. Deworm piglets regularly.
4. Nutritional deficiency
The feed on some farms is substandard and too monotonous, resulting in reduced digestive function and defecating while eating. Therefore, we should give piglets more green feed and fermented feed. Piglets fed only dried sweet potatoes have the highest disease rate, causing severe degradation of the piglets' digestive function.
