From time to time, we have people who ask what shots the breeders should have given the pigs before they are sold. This should also be a reference point for those of you that buy your pigs. This is what we vaccinate our little pigs for:
IPD for newborn pigs and revaccinate again at 7 days. (IPD stands for Iron, Penicillin, & Draxin)
Circovirus vaccine-a must have! I would strongly suggest avoiding buying pigs that were not vaccinated for this.
DectomaxWormer-to be given at least once by the breeder and revaccinate again at 150 lbs.
(please remember 1 cc per 75 lbs and withdrawal times of 18-25 days).
Mycoplasma Pneumonia shot
Rhinitis/Eryispelas/Flusure/Bordetella protection
If you have any questions on any of these vaccinations, please let me know.
Thanks,
Adam
