Abstract

635,004. Farrowing houses. FISHWICK, V. C. April 2, 1947, No. 9014. [Class 20 (i)] A farrowing house comprises one or more sties 20, each having a door 28 large enough for the passage of a sow; and a covered feeding passage 26 which communicates with each sty by an opening 32 of such a size that the piglets but not the sow can pass therethrough, the feeding passage having further openings 36 which allow the piglets access to a run 37 from which the sows are excluded. Windows 33, which may have hinged or sliding sashes, are provided in the front wall of each sty. They are arranged in such a position that they are opposite the doors 28 and further doors 31 which allow attendants to enter the sties. This arrangement of the windows ensures that one corner of each sty is kept dark, so as to induce the sow to farrow in this corner. Each of these corners may be heated, and may be covered by a hinged false roof to assist in keeping the corner warm and dark. The openings for the piglets may be provided with hinged or sliding doors which may be remotely controlled. Feeding and water troughs 42, 43 are provided in the passage.
