Effects Of Ill-feeding Pigs

Categories: Diseases of Animals

I have a couple of pigs, out of about 75 head farrowed last spring,

which seem to have the staggers. They are looking fairly well, feed well

on pasture and at feeding time are right there making as much noise as

the others. They run around as if they had a shot too much.



Your pigs are suffering from acute indigestion, undoubtedly due to

improper feeding. Cut down the rations, especially if they are getting

grain. Give sick pigs two tablespoonfuls of castor oil each.
