Inhlangano yaseNingizimu Afrika yabakhiqizi bezinkukhu (SAPPO) kuma-Pigs for Profit production manual, ichaza lokhu okulandelayo njengezimbangela ezivame kakhulu zokuqhwala nokukhubazeka kwezingulube.

Amathambo Aphukile

Ama-pig angase aphule amathambo kunoma yikuphi ubudala, ngenxa yokulimala noma izinkinga zethambo. Ingulube ephukile ithambo, kungenzeka ukuthi ingabe isisindo esinqunyiwe, isilungu singase sithathwe emhlabathini, ingulube ingase ingasuki, isilonda singase siphume noma siguquke noma senze umsindo wokugaya lapho sisuswa.
Amathambo aphukile kanye nokulimala kungagwenywa ngokusebenzisa ukuphatha okuhle, okungekho okwehlayo, ngisho, owomile, phansi futhi ngokungabi ngokweqile izilwane. I-SAPPO ikhombisa ukuthi izingulube ngamathambo aphukile zizobulawa ngokushesha ngangokunokwenzeka ukuvimbela ukuwohloka okuqhubekayo empilweni yesilwane nokunciphisa ukuhlupheka kwesilwane.

Ukulimala Komhlandla

Ukulimala komgogodla kungabangelwa ukulimala okubangelwa ukuqhuma kanzima ngemuva komgogodla, isilwane sishiya futhi sishaya noma isithumba sinzima kakhulu ekuhlwanyeleni. Izifo, ngenxa yokusila umsila ngokwesibonelo, zingabangela ukugquma emgodleni. Lezi zimo zizoholela ekubeni ingulube ihlale endaweni yokuhlala inja futhi ihudule i-hindmost yayo ukuhambisa noma ukuhlala endaweni yokulala.
Njengawo amathambo aphukile, angavinjelwa ngokuphatha kahle, engenazo ezisheshayo, ngisho, ezomile kanye nezilwane ezingaphezu kwamandla. Ukunakekelwa kufanele futhi kuthathwe ukuthi ungasebenzisi amabhuzu amakhulu kakhulu ezinhlwanyela nokuvimbela ukushaya umsila, okuvame ukubhekwa ukugwedla ngokweqile, hhayi isikhala sokunakekela okwanele namazinga aphezulu ezifo. Abahlwanyelayo abalimele, bangaphinde baphumule, kodwa ukulimala okuphambene nomgogodla kanye ne-abscesses kungase kungaphenduli ukwelashwa.

Izinkinga Zamathambo

Piglets should receive balanced rations to prevent nutritional deficiencies that may lead to bone problems.
Amangqamuzana athambile noma ahlambalazayo abangelwa ukudla okungekho kahle okungahambisani nengulube ne-calcium ngokwanele noma i-phosphorus. Izimpawu zokuntuleka kokudla okunomsoco zingase zibonwe ekuqaleni komjikelezo wokukhiqiza njengokukhula okungakajwayelekile kwamathambo noma izingulube ezikhulayo. Nakuba ukwehluleka okuphindaphindiwe noma okubonwayo kamuva esigabeni sokuqeda kungabangela amathambo abuthakathaka okuholela ekuhlatshweni kokuqala kwezingulube ezichaphazelekayo. Izingulube ezithintekile zingase ziqede, zihlushwa amathambo aphukile noma zingakwazi ukuvuka.
Ukugwema le nkinga, abalimi kufanele banikeze izingulube zabo ukudla okunomsoco kulo lonke umjikelezo wokukhiqiza. Abalimi kufanele baqaphele umthelela wokuqina kanzima kwamanzi noma ukuphakama okukhulu kwensimbi noma izinsimbi ezisindayo emanzini ngoba lezi zinganqanda ukukhipha amaminerali, okungaholela ekuthuthukiseni izilonda ezinyaweni. Umthombo owengeziwe we-calcium noma i-phosphorus unganikwa izingulube ezithinteka ngokweqile, kodwa izingulube ezingakwazi ukuhamba noma ezibuhlungu kufanele zihlatshwe.

Isifo Esibanga Ukuqaqamba Kwamalunga Omzimba

Ukuqaqamba kwamalunga omzimba kubangelwa izimo ezithathelwanayo, izingulube zikhulu ngokweqile kanye nezingulube ezikhula ngokushesha kakhulu. Izingulube ezithintekile zingase zihlambuluke, zingafuni ukuvuka noma zibe nesinye noma ngaphezulu kwezitho ezivuvukile ezifudumele nokuthinta.
Amathiphu okuvimbela i-arthritis, ihlanganisa ukwenza ukuhlanzeka okuhle, ukuvimbela inkaba yezinkukhu ezincane ngemuva kokuzalwa nokulawula ukudla okudlayo nokuzalana izilwane ezinamandla. Ama-pigs for Profit aneluleka abalimi ukuba bakhulume nezilwane zabo zezilwane ngezokwelapha, ngoba i-arthritis ingasabela kahle kuma-antibiotic. Nokho, ukulimala kwamalungu, kungase kube nzima kangangokuba indlela engcono kakhulu yokubhekana nale nkinga kungaba ukubulala ingulube.

Ubuthi

Care should be taken to ensure the water does not contain any harmful substances or toxins.
Usawoti okwedlulele, izitshalo ezithile, amaminerali, izibulala-zinambuzane kanye nokubulala udoti kungabangela ukukhubazeka okuvame ukuhambisana nokuhuda nokuhlanza. Abalimi kufanele bavimbele lokhu ngokugcina izilwane kude nalezi zinto ezinobuthi, kunciphise uketshezi usawoti futhi kungadli ukudlala.

Iphansi

Umqulu we-MSD wezilwane ngokubheka ngokubaluleka kobuqili ukukhomba uhlobo lwe-flooring njengesinqunto esikhulu sokuzikhukhumeza, nazo zonke izinhlobo zephansi "ezinokukhubazeka ezihambisana nabo." Ukungcola namadlelo, isibonelo, kungaba semile kakhulu noma kumanzi kakhulu, okuholela ezinyaweni izinkinga kanye nokutheleleka, kanti ukulala kungase kube umthombo amabhaktheriya abangela isifo samathambo esithathelwanayo, njengo-Erysipelothrix rhusiopathia.
Isimo sephansi singathinta futhi ukukhubazeka uma kunesisindo esincane kakhulu, semanzi noma kukhona imigodi, izikhala kanye nemiphetho ebukhali engabangela ukulimala.
