Chapter 1441 It’s useless to have too many children

The more they are raised, the less they are. No one can bear it if they are left alone.

Luo Hang was indescribably depressed. There were a lot of wild boars at home at first. Luo Bi just threw them home when she came back from a mission and ignored them later. The first litter of piglets was okay, but later on, they raised fewer and fewer piglets, and now there are only

Three big pigs are coming.

Luo Hang's demands were not high, and he was content with just giving birth to five or six piglets in this litter.

The weak piglets were eliminated, and five survived, two were given to the veterinarian and breeder, and one was given to the Jade Star Command. As long as the remaining two could be kept alive, Luo Hang was quite satisfied.

The children gathered around the whelping box, watching eagerly. The little piglet slipped and fell.

The breeder was experienced and immediately ordered: "Put some hay in."

"I'll get it." The Luo family had hay prepared. Luo Heng ran to the place where the hay was placed behind the mountain and hurriedly brought some back. The children helped to put it into the whelping box.

Next, little piglets were born one after another. The first few were all big, about three pounds. There were little black pigs, little white pigs, and little spotted pigs. They evolved from wild boars into domestic pigs. They came in all colors. They hummed with their little noses.

Hum.

There were quite a few people present, but not many actually intervened. A group of people gathered around the brood box to look at the piglets.

"One, two, three, four, five." Wei Yun clicked through and glanced at the sow. The sow was lying on the ground and humming. "Pakji" gave birth to another one. He exclaimed: "

Another one was born, and there were already five, and there are still more? This litter is quite big."

Li Feng poked He Yun: "Captain He, how many do you think this litter can have?"

Where do you go from here? He Yun asked the veterinarian directly: "Doctor, now the sow has given birth to six piglets in one go. Based on your past experience, how many piglets can be born in this litter?"

"Eight to nine!" After the veterinarian finished speaking, another piglet was born. The veterinarian picked it up and wiped it while saying: "There are too many piglets and the sow can't take care of them. Eight piglets."

It’s best to have nine. If there are more, you may not be able to keep them alive.”

In other words, having too many babies is of no use.

The veterinarian's concern is not unreasonable, but no one can say how many eggs a sow will give birth to in a litter. The sow doesn't even count herself, she just gives birth. Perhaps the three nutritious eggs have worked, one by one, and the sow has given birth.

The pig gave birth very smoothly.

At first everyone was quite happy, but when they counted twelve, everyone's expressions changed and their faces became tense.

Domestic animals give birth to piglets, but the more piglets the better. The nutritional value of wild boars raised to domestic pigs is definitely not comparable to that of monster meat or exotic animal meat. But the key is that the survival rate of piglets is low.

If the quantity is small, being more diligent can increase the survival rate.

If there are too many, it will be difficult to say.

Even ten of them can't be raised. She has already given birth to twelve. Judging from the sow's attitude, she still has something in her belly. If she continues to give birth, it cannot be said to be unnecessary, but nine out of ten she will not be able to raise her.

Luo Bi didn't think so. She asked Zhu Xingshao to go out for a walk and found out that Mrs. Huang had planted carrots, so she went straight to the Huang family villa.

Mrs. Huang happened to be at Feizhuxing, so she welcomed the two of them in and went to the planting field.

"I planted some carrots in the ground, but it's not the ripe season at this time, and the carrots haven't grown into a full-sized carrot yet." Mrs. Huang looked good and was in a good mood. She pointed to a small piece of carrot and said, "If you want to eat it,

, I will dig some for you in a few days, but they are too small now, so it would be a pity to dig them up."
