Sow just weaned
Just weaned our sows litter and want to breed her back. I have heard that they go into heat 3-4 days after weaning should I give her Pg-600 or just hope that she does?
Re: Sow just weaned
Most cycle 3-7 days after weaning, but that also depends on how long you left them nurse the last litter. If they nurse more than 21 days a few will have a quiet heat while nursing and won't cycle until 3 weeks after that. Pg600 might help them show a heat more, but it won't make them come in heat if they already cycled. With mine, I breed on the second heat unless I absolutely need her breed them. To me it is better to wait and know when they will cycle than spend the money and not have them come in heat.
