It is a good idea to vaccinate your pigs for chol era, and erysipelas and to re vaccinate i ; your sows once a year,, preferably right behind the second weaning. It has - been established that for every top hog that goes tp market in the United States, hog cholera alone has cost the hog producers about 50 Rents, per head." The best ray to protect you from heavy losses ue to hog . cholera is by a vaccination program. With the vaccines' that are used nOw, it is safe . to yaccinate at any time, with proper handling of the vaccine. , . . Another, management practice is, iprpper , jvorming , of these hogs right after they , are weaned. Most people like to worm these pigs at 30 pounds and 75 ent hog wormers on the market $og 'includinl liquid I wormers a ,dVy feed wormers, that is easy o use and is not harmful to ,0ur breeding Block.
