We have a gilt due to farrow - or so we thought. We used AI - our first time but we thought it went ok. We inseminated her on three successive days (1) not bad (2) seemed good (3) not a success.
Recently we were pretty confident she was in pig. Her underlined has noticeably dropped although her teats do not seem to have altered. We thought there was a little white mucus discharge this afternoon.
But - we are now near the end of day 116 follow AI attempt (2). So, (a) she may yet farrow tonight (b) she may not be in pig after all? or (c)...?
My questions are: what is the range of gestation, I thought it was only one day either way? And, is there a scenario where she might need intervention?
Two years into pig keeping we have had two previous farrowings which went smoothly.
Thanks for any thoughts.
