Hi
Our berkshire piglets (11) are 10 days old today. By chance we were showing some folk the piglets and mum was about to feed them. Piglets responded to mums call and gradually left the creep until there were two remaining. One got up and nudged the other who didn't respond. We were looking from the stable door and decided to intervene. I gently poked the piglet but it didn't move so I picked it up and it was warm, eyes open but limp looking dead without obvious injury. I gave it to my husband and he put his finger in its mouth and it gasped and came back to normality and went on to feed with the others. Was it in a deep sleep? I have never come across this before. Scary moment - has anyone encountered this before. Were we just lucky to be there? Anyway piglet perfect tonight.
