The Value of Teat Count and Loading Strategy

from Inside the Helix · host DNA Genetics

In this episode with Brady McNeil, he will dive into a study on functional teat count and piglet weaning. Each additional functional teat supports weaning about one-third more pig. Loading up to one pig over teat count increases pigs weaned without raising pre-weaning mortality, but exceeding this threshold leads to higher losses without improving litter weight.🔊 Listen now on Inside the Helix → https://ow.ly/lVHQ50VtvMi #SwineGenetics #FarrowingSuccess #InsideTheHelix
