Pigs need activities to keep them both engaged and entertained. Without access to environmental enrichment and toys, growing swine can develop behavioural problems that make feeding difficult. In the long term, behavioural issues can negatively impact their health. By nature, pigs display aggression to assert dominance. They do this by starting fights and biting other pigs' tails and ears, causing damage and costly veterinary bills.
Hog House Systems, has developed and produced over 70,000 swine welfare toys in four different welfare enrichment designs for various stages of production, which include: Piglets (0-4 weeks), 1st Stage Weaners (4-7 weeks), 2nd Stage Weaners (7-12 weeks), and Finishers/ Sows (12-26 Weeks).
Our design allows several pigs to play together, which has been proven to reduce ear, tail, and flank biting in pigs. The chain was specially designed with a welded ring with six links from the bottom to add interaction and sound for the pigs to enjoy.
