Hello all- I am totally new to this forum and raising pigs. We just picked up two feeder pigs from a rather shady fellow we met on craigslist...they were castrated the day we took them. We brought them home and they seem to be in quite the terrified shocked state. The guy recommended putting iodine on them to help the wounds from castration. I'm not that worried but they don't seem interested in eating or drinking. Does anyone know how long they normally are in shock for? We put up a heat lamp which has stopped them from shivering.
