Hi, I would like to know about floor cooling. Is it solid floor or on farrowing crate? Flushing with water or ventilation? Did sow have termal shock when they are milking their piglet when you flush them?

desire germain lavigilante Solid floor with cooling is made by circulation of frozen water in copper serpentine system incorporated only under the nut floor. This system still makes possible the decline of death of piggy by crushing. This is why when the nut lifts, the cold floor does not favor the permanence of the piglet on him.
