Weaning is a very stressful process for piglets. They are removed from their sows, placed in a new environment, mixed with piglets from other litters and expected to start eating solid food. All this happens at a time when their digestive and immune systems are not fully developed. All these factors contribute to the growth retardation that occurs immediately after weaning. Piglets stop eating, have a reduced growth rate and are more susceptible to infections in the first 2 days after weaning. This condition can even lead to death. There are various strategies that can help piglets during the weaning period, both before weaning and after weaning in the nursery. One of the available strategies before weaning is creep feeding. This involves providing supplementary feed to piglets during the lactation period. The aim is to shorten the growth retardation after weaning and to give the pigs a better start into the next stages of life. The feed used contains highly digestible and palatable ingredients that motivate piglets to consume it.
