Sudden death

Post by BCP2013 » Sun May 19, 2019 6:38 am

I have a group of 4h kids who purchased a group of around 40 early January pigs in mid March. So far 10 of these pigs have died in the last 50 days.
Once the pigs were delivered they were seperated and sent to different homes. They have been kept up to date on wormer.
The pigs seem to be doing fine and then develope a fever and die in a day or two.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what we can do to treat this or what this could be?

Post mortem examinations are the place to start to find answers.
