The majority of pigs may be able to tolerate the situation, but it is an early sign that individuals in some pens may turn to tail biting, indicating that the conditions are stressful for some pigs. A deterioration in the situation, eg temperature gets hotter (or colder) or another factor occurs (such as feed outage) may tip the rest of the pigs into tail biting.</p> <h2>Early prevention &ndash; things to look for</h2> <p>Awareness of these early cues that tail biting is about to happen can help with early actions to reduce tail biting. Reacting at this stage can help to prevent or reduce the impact of more severe biting activity later; once tail biting is established it is harder to manage or contain.</p> <p>Scroll down to view a number of early signs associated with later tail biting behaviour, and things to look out for. Select the early signs which apply to your farm to add them to the report.</p> </div> </div>http://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/pigs-which-have-previously-been-housed-on-straw-now-in-non-straw-housing Pigs which have previously been housed on straw, now in non-straw housingThu, 01 Dec 2016 13:28:47 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/pigs-which-have-previously-been-housed-on-straw-now-in-non-straw-housinghttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/season-late-summerSeason - Late summerThu, 01 Dec 2016 11:58:14 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/season-late-summerhttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/high-temperatureHigh TemperatureThu, 01 Dec 2016 12:01:40 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/high-temperaturehttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/high-humidityHigh humidityThu, 01 Dec 2016 12:03:29 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/high-humidityhttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/fouled-or-dirty-objects-in-the-penFouled or dirty objects in the penThu, 29 Dec 2016 14:04:31 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/fouled-or-dirty-objects-in-the-penhttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/mix-of-tail-lengths-2Mix of tail lengthsThu, 01 Dec 2016 10:43:35 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/mix-of-tail-lengths-2http://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/vaccination-with-pcv2-vaccine-2Not using PCV2 vaccineThu, 01 Dec 2016 12:08:28 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/vaccination-with-pcv2-vaccine-2http://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/dunging-in-the-lying-areaDunging in the lying areaThu, 01 Dec 2016 13:37:11 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/dunging-in-the-lying-areahttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/lying-area-or-pens-are-long-and-narrowPens are long and narrowThu, 01 Dec 2016 13:38:42 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/lying-area-or-pens-are-long-and-narrowhttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/pen-layoutPen LayoutThu, 01 Dec 2016 13:29:46 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/pen-layouthttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/sup-optimal-stawSub optimal stawThu, 01 Dec 2016 11:52:03 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/sup-optimal-stawhttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/low-staw-coverageLow staw coverageThu, 01 Dec 2016 11:53:31 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/low-staw-coveragehttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/cold-pen-temperatureCold pen temperatureThu, 01 Dec 2016 10:44:44 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/cold-pen-temperaturehttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/draughts-in-the-lying-areaDraughts in the lying areaThu, 01 Dec 2016 10:45:53 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/draughts-in-the-lying-areahttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/feed-in-pelletsFeed in pelletsThu, 01 Dec 2016 11:41:06 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/feed-in-pelletshttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/weight-of-pigWeight of pigThu, 01 Dec 2016 11:48:43 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/weight-of-pighttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/humidity-and-temperature-outside-recommended-rangeHumidity and temperature outside recommended rangeThu, 01 Dec 2016 10:47:08 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/humidity-and-temperature-outside-recommended-rangehttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/high-number-of-hours-of-sunshineHigh number of hours of sunshine and High air pressureThu, 01 Dec 2016 11:20:34 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/high-number-of-hours-of-sunshinehttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/fouled-drinksFouled DrinkersThu, 01 Dec 2016 11:39:22 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/fouled-drinkshttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/vaccination-with-pcv2-vaccineNot using PCV2 vaccineThu, 01 Dec 2016 11:44:36 GMThttp://webhat.ahdb.org.uk:80/vaccination-with-pcv2-vaccine
