Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of livestock breeding tools, and more specifically, this application relates to a weaning device. Background Art

[0002] Livestock are mammals. Before their digestive systems are fully developed, young livestock need to drink the milk of their mothers to obtain the nutrition for their growth. However, as livestock grow, they need to be weaned and start to learn to eat forage. During weaning, if livestock are forcibly separated from their mothers, it will not only have a negative impact on the psychology of the livestock away from their mothers, which may cause the livestock not to grow healthily, but also increase the isolation mechanism and raise the breeding cost. Therefore, during the weaning process of livestock, some tools that allow livestock and their mothers to choose to wean independently are needed.

[0003] Existing auxiliary livestock weaning devices are installed on the noses of young livestock that need to be weaned. The weaning device is provided with spikes. When young livestock try to drink milk, the spikes on the weaning device prick the mother's breast, causing the mother to give up breastfeeding and assisting the livestock to wean. This weaning device is easy to fall off when installed on the livestock's nose. If it is installed too tightly, it will also cause harm to the livestock. In addition, the spikes will also cause harm to the mother livestock. Utility Model Content
