Sažetak
The behaviour of 4 sows (Large White x Landrace), kept in an object with farrowing crates (2000 mm x 1500 mm), on slated floors, was compared to the behaviour of four sows (Big Yorkshire) kept in another object with farrowing crates (2500 x 1750), on a full floor, applying video-traped data. On the 10" day after farrowing, each sow was video-taped, during a 6 hour period (from 08:00 to 14:00 h). During the recording, temperature, relative humidity and draught speed were measured in both objects. According to the measured microclimatic perimeters in both object, the temperature and relative humidity were within the optimal range, while the level of draught was higher than recomended for sows kept in farrowing-sty. Sows kept on full floor spent longer time sitting, standing and laying in stemal posture, than sows kept on frequency, was two times higher in sows kept on a full floor, compared with he sows kept on slated floor. According to the obtained results, regarding the behavioural patterns of sows, we can conclude that a change in the frequency and duration of the mentioned bodily postures occured, which is influenced with the altered needs of piglets, according to their aging and physiological maturation.
