Post-colostrum milk for larger litters
and in case of insufficient colostrum intake
BEWI-SAN Piglet Start
The challenge:
Piglets are born without their own immune system. Therefore, early colostrum intake is essential for the newborns. Due to the pig’s placental barrier, they are born without maternal antibodies. This means they do not have any protection against infections. For this reason, an immediate as well as adequate supply of colostrum is not only essential but also plays a decisive role in farrowing management.
However, litter sizes are incresing. So, the amount of colostrum per piglet may be insufficient. Especially the piglets that are both lighter and less vital at birth receive less colostrum. As a result, they have poorer starting conditions. When having very large litters or those with below-average milk yields of the sows, this can quickly lead to gaps in supply for the suckling piglets.
In these situations, it is recommended to offer the piglets a post-colostrum milk, such as BEWI-SAN Piglet Start.
