Creep Feed Pigs for Fast Efficient Gains
University of Illinois experts advocate creep feeding suckling pigs starting at about 10 days old. Key tips include pairing sow feeding early, placing feeders in protected spots, using at least 17 percent protein starter, and favoring palatable rations with sugar or molasses. A recommended starter mix uses oat groats or rolled oats, coarse corn, sugars, soy meal, dried skim milk, fish solubles, minerals, and salt with premix, while a simpler formula blends soy meal, dried skim milk, bone meal, and iodized salt.
