Subject field(s)
  • Animal Feed (Agric.)
CONT

Choosing a creep feed that contains complex, highly digestible ingredients and that tastes and smells like sow’s milk helps create eaters by encouraging pigs to eat ... When it’s time to move on to the nursery, using a starter feed with a similar taste and smell as their creep feed will help pigs transition more quickly. The sooner they take those first bites after weaning, the better chance they have to get off to a good start.
