Chapter 23: Pigman Feng Yiping
In addition to cows, there is another kind of livestock that needs to be raised with care, and that is pigs, especially sows that can give birth to piglets. This Feng Yiping also has a say. Because of the secondary school years, in order to keep the life going, the family raised sows.
Sows give birth to two litters a year, and each litter has more than ten piglets. The tradition of survival of the fittest in the animal world is directly manifested here. There are always one or two piglets in each litter. They are born thinner than other siblings, and on several occasions, more piglets are born than sows.
Feng Yiping remembered that there were 13 sows in their family, but on several occasions they had more than 13 piglets. Therefore, the weakest piglet can hardly eat mother's milk, and the weakest one is the most bothersome.
This little piglet is worth seventy, eighty, or even hundreds of dollars. Of course, you have to take care of it. Just use the rice milk boiled and ground in the rice soup, put it in a bottle, and feed it with the piglet—just like feeding a baby. .
It’s not okay to eat this all the time. I still want breast milk. I can only wait for the other piglets to finish the milk, and then carefully send it to its mother to let it breastfeed. The reason why we say to be careful is that the sow during the lactation period is very temperamental and cares for the young. Even if the owner is close, she will be very vigilant. Sometimes, not only will she use her mouth to arch you, but she will bite you. Be careful.
In addition, breastfeeding mothers, whether they are human or pig mothers, have a very strong temper and are easily irritable-Feng Yiping also has experience.
It’s been fed just once, and you let a little thing come to breastfeed. If it’s in a bad mood, it will lie on the ground and hold it all down. Let the little guy babble next to it, and it closes its eyes. Ears drooped, pretending to not see or hear. At this time, you have to tickle it well, coax it, and then it will lean over and expose it.
Be careful, eating and eating, mother pig will be impatient again, it's never ending, so she turned over, the skinny little guy was not sensitive at first, and had no time to think about other things when eating Zhengxiang. It will be pressed under the belly by the mother and compacted, and the mother of a few hundred catties will kill most of it at once, so at this time, you must have eyesight and quickness, or you will become an accomplice.
It takes more than two months from giving birth to piglets to selling them. The price of piglets is high. A little piglet is one catty longer, which is a dozen or twenty catties in total, and an average of three to four yuan per catty, which costs nearly one hundred yuan, so the two months really cost a lot. strength.
First, let the sow eat well so that she can feed the piglets with milk. When the piglets grow up slowly and after weaning, let them eat well and grow strong. At that time, the family had no money to buy feed, so they used earthen methods to grind the rice into rice milk with a stone mill, then add water to boil it and feed it to piglets. It is not easy to grind more than ten kilograms of rice with the original stone mill every day.
And just like a child, it's a long night, at least one more feeding in the middle. In the middle of the night, a large pot of rice milk should be boiled, and they should be greeted to eat clean, then it is convenient to drive them out, and then coax them home one by one, which takes nearly two hours.
If you want to let the piglet eat more, you have to use your brain. You just eat and then sleep, and you eat when you sleep. Of course, there will be meat, but after that, you will only eat less and less. What to do, let the little pigs exercise moderately every day.
Therefore, in Feng Yiping's resume, in addition to herding cattle, there is another item of herding pigs.
Mama Pig, Yizhu, walked ahead first, her belly flat, and a little staggering. As it walked, it screamed, so a group of white, black, and flowered baby pigs bunched up and followed behind. You chased me, and the little tail flicked. There is no idleness in the mouth, all the little pigs respond to Mother Pig with a similar melody, but the front and me behind are not neat, very lively.
There is a flat land on the hill, which is usually used for drying. The little guys are in groups, spreading joy in the field. Mother Pig is arching her mouth here and there in the grass beside her. When she is a little tired, she lazily returns to the field to lie down.
As soon as it lay down, the little pigs swarmed over, fighting for me to grab it, and after a while, all that was left was the sucking sound. Not long after, Mother Pig called out and struggled a few times before she lay flat on the ground instead of feeding.
A few little pigs arched their stomachs with their small mouths, and the mother pig squinted her eyes and ignored them. Seeing that this trick was useless, a little pig ran to his mother’s head, yelling eagerly, and arched her mother’s face with a small mouth. Mother pig was still unmoved, and the little pig continued to sell cute, but mother pig Impatient, with a flick of his head, he swept the little guy far away.
咚咚咚The little pig who rolled out so far seemed a little dizzy, and a little confused about the situation, it was quietly lying on the ground for a while before he recovered. It was quiet for a while, and it screamed happily, spread its hooves, and ran to the other brothers and sisters happily, you arched my mouth, I hit you, and played happily. Only a few of them remained, next to Mama Pig, taking a quiet nap.
Whenever this time, there are always people who take a look at the longest one, the most lively one, the most edible one, and the most powerful one... This is a good time to catch for the future. aims.
In this way, the family worked hard for more than two months, and finally, the separate days arrived. After picking a day, the mother pig was locked in the pigpen, the piglets were locked in the house, and the people who had arranged a long time ago came to the house together, UU reading www.uukanshu.com each grabbed the little pig that he liked. If you didn't grab the favorite, Feng Yiping didn't care about it. The pigs were packed in sacks or baskets and led to the new home when they were weighed.
From the moment the switch was switched on, Mother Pig had never been quiet. She called after her call, walked home again and again, and was pulled back by the rope around her neck again and again, but she still worked tirelessly. .
The little pigs were crying more and more urgently, louder and louder, and the cry was disturbed and panic. Mother Pig heard it, and became more and more excited, and kept crying. The voice was full of anxiety and concern.
But in the end, it could only watch in vain as the piglets were taken by strangers further and further.
Some piglets were struggling to jump up from the basket again and again, with two shanks on the edge of the basket, watching mother pig crying, or crying, mother pig rushed in that direction again and again, every time The ropes are stretched tightly, straight...
For a few days after that, the sow will always be embarrassed and will not even want to eat.
It’s strange to say that during the three years when Feng Yiping was in technical secondary school, which was the most difficult time for the family, the sows raised were good, rarely got sick, each litter gave birth to more than a dozen, and the survival rate was high. It can increase the income of the family by nearly two thousand. But after he started working, the family continued to raise sows, but there were always troubles like this, which was not cost-effective. In the end, he never raised sows.
