I. Pathological diarrhea in piglets
Generally, diarrhea caused by epidemic diarrhea virus, infectious gastroenteritis virus and rotavirus bacteria alone or in combination is pathological diarrhea. When bacteria or viruses cause pathological changes in the intestinal tract of piglets, it will lead to piglet diarrhea. This type of diarrhea is characterized by short duration of illness and high mortality rate, and the phenomenon of litter death often occurs.
For pathological diarrhea in piglets, prevention is generally the mainstay, adopting a scientific and hygienic way of raising pigs to prevent piglets from receiving the attack of germs. Immediate measures should be taken after the onset of the disease to isolate the sick pig, spray the excreta and vomit with swine veterinary medicine, and rinse it off after about half an hour. To the onset of weaning piglets filled with oral veterinary drugs, the onset of lactating piglets sprayed with piglet-specific drugs, a few days after the symptoms can disappear.
Physiological diarrhea
Physiological diarrhea is different from pathological diarrhea, physiological diarrhea is just because the development of piglet physiological system is not perfect, the digestive system and thermoregulation skills are not sound, the resistance to external influences is poor, the piglet's immunity decreases, digestive dysfunction, triggering the propagation of pathogenic microorganisms in the intestinal tract and cause diarrhea.
Because the physiological diarrhea of piglets is mostly due to the digestive system and thermoregulation skills are not sound, digestive dysfunction triggered by excessive reproduction of pathogenic microorganisms in the intestinal tract, so for the physiological diarrhea, we can regulate the intestinal health care medicines with non-solid feeds to feed the piglets.
Stress diarrhea
Stress diarrhea in piglets is caused by weaning, environmental changes and feed changes. Especially after weaning, piglets are very prone to weaning stress which leads to diarrhea. After weaning, piglets' absorption of nutrients, adaptation to feed, and changes in environment and psychology will all lead to stress diarrhea.
In the face of piglet stress, we should firstly make up the feed in advance, exercise the gastrointestinal tract of piglets to avoid nutritional stress, and secondly, we should gradually transition to weaning, so as to reduce the psychological stress of piglets, and in the weaning stage after weaning, we should move the mother and keep the piglets, and let the same piglets stay in the same shed for a few days, and then carry out the pen, so as to reduce the impact of environmental stress.
Effective and good treatment for piglet diarrhea
1、Viral diarrhea
Diarrhea caused by epidemic viruses, viral diarrhea, whether large pigs or piglets may occur, but if the piglets are infected with this pig disease, then the mortality rate may reach, and viral diarrhea contagious speed is very fast, a pig onset, may be infected with the whole group, can not be prevented. Viral diarrhea serum and interferon is, and there is no viral diarrhea medicine on the market, if the farm is found to have viral diarrhea disease, then it can only do a good job to prepare for piglet casualties.
2、Bacterial diarrhea
Bacterial diarrhea is divided into many kinds, such as those caused by E. coli, Clostridium difficile or Salmonella. The common bacterial diarrhea in pig farms is caused by E. coli. Yellow and white diarrhea in piglets also belongs to bacterial diarrhea, and piglets with diarrhea caused by bacterial infections usually have yellow loose feces. This type of diarrhea can be treated with enrofloxacin, berberine sulfate, and 10% florfenicol, which are very effective. The mortality rate of bacterial diarrhea is also large, but as long as timely, the effect is better than viral diarrhea.
3、Nutritional diarrhea
This diarrhea usually occurs during the weaning of piglets, this period if the piglets eat the diet contains some antigenic substances, piglets eat digested incomplete, then it may cause nutritional diarrhea. If the piglet's feces contain undigested feed samples, then this is undoubtedly nutritional diarrhea. In addition to the weaning period will occur during this disease, to the pig change feed, also prone to nutritional diarrhea. Occurrence of this diarrhea farmers do not need to be anxious, the first thing to do is to give the pigs supplemental vitamins, in addition to prevent the pigs from pulling dehydration, and then some dilution of the injection, in all diarrhea, nutritional diarrhea or better.
4、Other
In addition to the above three kinds of diarrhea, there is stress diarrhea and parasitic diarrhea, stress diarrhea occurs on the premise of environmental or dietary changes, such as long-distance transportation of pigs, then it is very likely to occur stress diarrhea, in this case, farmers need to do is to find a way to reduce the stress of the herd. Parasitic diarrhea is generally a pig digestive tract with nematodes, roundworms and other parasites, to prevent this kind of diarrhea, that is, timely deworming of sows and fat pigs.
