Livestock Teeth Clipper

The teeth clipper is a handheld instrument used in trimming and cutting the teeth of juvenile livestock especially piglets. The teeth of piglets should be clipped as soon as possible after birth. The piglet is born with 8 teeth. If the teeth are not clipped, the sow’s (mother) udder may be injured by the suckling piglets.

Removal of the teeth also prevents young pigs from injuring themselves while fighting or playing.
This tool features a sturdy cutting blade with the spring pressure system.

Why clip the teeth of young pigs?

Piglets bite the sow (mother) in their fight to get hold of one of her teats and suckle. The pain caused by this disturbs the sow causing her to get up and prevent her young from feeding.
The cuts to the sow’s udder also allow germs to infect the udder. In their fight to grasp the teat and suckle, piglets will also bite and injure one another.
The simple practice of clipping the teeth as soon as possible after birth prevents these problems.

When should the teeth be clipped?

The piglet’s teeth should be cut as soon as possible after its birth. The teeth can be cut when the pig is only 15 minutes old.
The sow and her young should be separated for as short a time as possible. In order to clip the teeth, you will need either a pair of tooth clippers.
You will need someone to help you separate the sow and her young.
You will also need a box containing bedding and a clean empty pen.

Process to clip the teeth

If the sow is not restrained, separate her from her young and place her in another pen. Take care as the sow with a litter can be dangerous.
Corner the piglets and keep them together or place them in a box.
Hold the head and press the corner of the piglet’s mouth so that the jaws open.
Place the clippers on either side of one pair of teeth making sure that the tongue is not in the way.
Tilt the head so that the pieces of the teeth will fall out of the mouth.
Cut the teeth as close as possible to the gums.
Clean/disinfect/sterilize the clippers before using them on another piglet.
Operate on the rest of the litter and when you have finished put the piglets back with the sow immediately.
Ensure you keep young piglets warm at all times. You can use the heating lamp

Afrimash provides various shipping methods. These methods vary based on the class of the item being shipped, the weight, and/or the customer’s choice at checkout.

We currently offer three shipping options: Local Pickup shipping, Economy shipping, and Convenient shipping options.

Local Pickup Shipping

Local Pickup is the shipping option that gives our customers affordable delivery fees with flexible control over the pickup of their orders.

This means that the customer can pick up his or her package from a local road transport park or an agreed pickup point close to his/her home or office address. We ensure swift and secure deliveries through commercial vehicles from third-party transporters and road transport agencies across Nigeria.

We also make sure the third-party transporters are supplied with the contact details of the customers for communication and a smooth delivery process.

For this type of delivery method, we always encourage our customers to get ready to pick up their items before the drivers get to the agreed pickup point or park.

Customer Guidelines for Local Pick-ups

Please get to the agreed local park or pickup venue early enough before the arrival of your order, which is packaged and sealed with your invoice.
Please inspect your item immediately at the pickup point before leaving.
If there is any problem, please contact the Afrimash logistics team on 2348092323212
Also note that Afrimash works with 3rd party transporters/drivers, the rigors of the journey may affect their temperament while communicating with customers, thus we advise for patience and tact when communicating with the drivers as well as picking up your orders.
Drivers are always paid per order before dispatch unless otherwise stated prior to dispatch of your order.
Kindly disregard any solicitation for extra payment from any driver before picking up your order.

Local pickup is suitable for customers who are ready to pick up their items within 24 hours after order confirmation. Local pickup is also suitable for customers who are close to central locations and motor parks as this gives them easy access to the pickup of their goods.
