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).
This hanging chain chew toy is a material and toy that reduces animal stress and minimizes fighting and such habits as tail biting. For these reasons, we also call this chain an anti-stress chain.
Our chain gives you the possibility to change the height from which it is hanging with a length of 19-1/2" at its longest point and only 1-1/2" at its shortest point. Each adjustable chain link will give you a difference of 1-1/2" giving you 13 hanging options.
