Description

Animal welfare type sows {arrowing Pen Device}

The present invention provides a sow raising suckling chicks and a sow cage (Farrowing Pen or Farrowing crate) that allows the sows to evacuate from the sow, from the minimum activity space of the sow and the mother pig according to the animal welfare level. It is about an animal welfare type sow house that forms a sheltering space for piglets to escape.

The calving pigs live in the farrowing house for about 35 days and give birth, after which they raise their young.

At this time, the young chicks who are suckling from the sow are composed of a cage or stall-type sow cage (Farrowing Pen or Farrowing crate) with a minimum space so that the sow cannot move due to the problem of being crushed by the sow in the minimal activity of sitting up and sitting. However, sow houses with such a minimum space increase stress and inhibit normal activities of sows, so many studies are being conducted to improve them in domestic and foreign pig houses according to the Animal Protection Act.

Accordingly, the "Animal Protection Act" provides that animals are protected from thirst, hunger, discomfort and pain, wounds and diseases, and Article 3 (Basic Principles of Animal Protection) of the Act, which is based on the expression of normal behavior and freedom from fear and stress. A person who breeds, manages, or protects animals shall ensure that animals can live normally while maintaining their original habits and body shape. Ensure that the animal does not suffer from thirst, hunger, or nutritional deficiencies. Ensure that the animal is able to express normal behavior and does not experience discomfort. Make animals free from pain, injury and disease. It is a basic principle to keep animals free from fear and stress.

However, domestic breeding is generally done in a divided and cramped pig house in a pig house built as a factory farm, and in particular, a stall breeding method in which pregnant pigs are confined in a narrow cage for a certain period of time. In addition, in cages or stall-type sows (Farrowing Pen or Farrowing crate) that breed mother pigs and piglets that are suckling for a certain period after giving birth together, piglets escape from the mother in a space where mother pigs cannot be active. It creates some space to do it.

With this prior art, the configuration shown in the drawings of the present inventor's prior patent registration No. 10-0693071 constitutes an extremely narrow cage in which only the mother pig is accommodated in the pig room, and the mother pig is configured so that the young can eat the fish sauce from the outside. You can see the configuration where no activity is possible at all.

Patent Publication No. 10-2012-0022035 configures a farrowing stall in which a mother pig is accommodated in a sow house that is formed in a certain size, so that the mother is accommodated in the farrowing stall to limit the activity, and young chicks can suckle from the outside of the farrowing stall. make it possible,

In another patent registration No. 10-1707309, a farrowing frame is arranged in a space where only a mother pig can stand in the divided delivery room.

These components are structured in such a way that the mother cannot do the minimum amount of exercise, so that the mother pig receives a lot of stress and is contrary to the Animal Protection Act.

Accordingly, in the improved patent registration No. 10-1149483, it is composed of a breeding frame for mother pigs with a larger area, but breeding to prevent pressurization of piglets and form an active space for mother pigs and to improve animal welfare. It was composed of a breeding frame that stretches one side of the frame.

This configuration is limited to the simple technique of expanding by simply moving the fence on one side of the breeding frame, and the disadvantage of having to provide more space for the expansion part in a narrow pig house area and the problem that the young chicks cannot be prevented from being crushed by the mother can't do it
