“Our piglets that are fed on Neopigg Go! are more solid”

My general impression of this diet is very good. The piglets eat it like I eat a fillet steak – they really go for it! And they get a glow and a bloom about them. Our piglets that are fed on Neopigg Go! are more solid. When both farrowing rooms have 24 sows in each and approximately 12 piglets per sow I get through a bag of Neopigg Go! per room in the run up to weaning. I feed it little and often, from five days old, but I might offer just a little on a heat mat before this. Intakes really ‘take-off’ and at weaning the piglets are 600g heavier than they were on a conventional creep feed. Post-weaning, I can pick out the piglets that have had Go! Also, they eat the starter feed straight away with no post-weaning checks. I am always very sceptical about trying new things but this actually worked. If I was scoring the product I would give it a 10!
