Modern hyperprolific sows commonly have large litters with a wide range of piglet birthweights, with low birthweight piglets proving typically less viable than their heavier cohorts.

Low viability piglets do not have the strength to suckle and are often deprived of vital colostrum and become weak. Post -Weaning Weaning is a stressful transition as piglets experience separation from the sow and must adapt to a new environment and a totally solid diet. Consequently, feed intakes typically plateau immediately post-weaning and less viable piglets will often ‘fade’ further.

Mixing of litters at weaning exposes piglets to new diseases, whilst the supply of passive immunity from maternal colostrum is abruptly halted. These factors contribute to reduced production performance parameters. Product StimuLife contains optimum levels of vitamin E to help support the piglet’s natural immune function.

StimuLife provides piglets with a highly digestible source of energy and other quality ingredients to help support them through periods of stress, such as weaning, and probiotics to help stimulate proliferation of beneficial gut bacteria. Presented as a highly palatable and sticky oral paste, StimuLife is easily administered and can quickly become part of the Farrowing House and Nursery routine with vulnerable piglets as well as those ‘fading’ pigs post-weaning.
