  • Feeding Directions

    We recommend starting Pre-Starter while the babies are still on the sow by throwing on a mat or in a small creep feeder. Some breeders begin to introduce when babies are approximately 1 week old in the crate and fed until approximately 1/2 to 1 full bag per litter is used, depending on the size of the litter. By this time, the babies have been weaned approximately 5-10 days and it’s time for the next step in the program, which is Sunglo Starter.
