Virginia is for Pasture Farmers!
What about something lacking in their diet and or in the ground?
I know in some other, smaller animals, giving them liquid calcium sometimes helps.

Are the moms too fat? Wonder if you are overfeeding and the piglets are growing too big?

Oh really nice pic there
I'm not suggesting a prob with pinkie sows from the barn op but more like a few terminal gilts that sneaked out to an unsuspecting homesteader - I think you know where this convo is heading BHOBC without me going into too much detail
Yep. ;) I would like an update on this case, also, very curious.

x2. How old are your sows when you have them bred? What breed are they?

That IS a great link--do you mind if I submit it to the Emergencies, Injures, & Cures section?
