Short- But Not Long-Term Effects of Creep Feeding Provided to Suckling Piglets [PDF]
AnimalsFifty-eight litters (16 from primiparous gilts and 42 from multiparous sows) were used, with a total number of 750 piglets involved in the study. Birth weight was stratified into three groups: low (1.62 kg; HBW).

PSVI-22 Effect of Creep-Feeding on Feeding Behavior of Nellore Calves [PDF]
J Anim Sci, 2023 Abstract The study aimed to evaluate the effect of creep-feeding on feeding behavior of beef calves, during nursing phase. The experiment lasted 170 days; from December/2021 to May/2022, the calves were born in September/2021 and creep-feeding supplementation started from approximately 70 days of life until weaning.
