What is Milkiwean Yoghurt? A supplementary liquid diet for young piglets. Developed to be complementary to sow milk, it is not a

replacement for colostrum Contains three times as much dry matter as regular

milk substitutes Has a high viscosity to avoid overeating and digestive disorders Very palatable and highly digestible Doesn’t contain plasma

Milkiwean Yoghurt in combination with Milkiwean Precoce (21 days weaning) and with Milkiwean Granito (28 days weaning) is the optimal Milkiwean feeding program for the best performance.

Attention: This feeding schedule is a guideline. Lower the volume when piglets do not take in full dosage; raise the volume when intake is good. The daily ration is depending on several management factors, like the sow’s milk production, the climate and litter size.

Application Piglets need to take in suffi cient colostrum. Start feeding Milkiwean Yoghurt in small portions

12 hours after birth. Start feeding small amounts with a measuring jug. Feed after that with a bucket or watering can. Feed Milkiwean Yoghurt in a bowl twice daily. Adjust the amount to make sure the piglets empty

the bowl.

The piglets need to empty this every 24 hours. Feed intake can vary between litters and

weak groups. From day 14, gradually change over to

pre-weaning feed.

Tip: Giving the fi rst feeding diluted (1 kg to 4 liters of luke warm water) can have a benefi cial effect on the feed intake.
