38 Effects of combining nose flap weaning with short-term creep feeding of beef calves on cow and calf performance [PDF]
J Anim Sci, 2020 One hundred four Angus calves were ranked by gender, BW, age, and dam parity, and assigned to 1 of 4 pre-weaning treatments: 1) nose flaps for 7-d prior to weaning (NF), 2) traditional weaning (TRAD), 3) traditional weaning and creep feed for 3-wk ...

Feed intake of the sow and playful creep feeding of piglets influence piglet behaviour and performance before and after weaning. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 Creep feed intake is variable and may be partly homeostatically and exploratory driven. We studied effects of maternal feed restriction and a ‘play-feeder’ on piglet behaviour and performance.

Effects of creep feeding and its interactions with other factors on the performance of meat goat kids and dams when managed on pasture. [PDF]
Transl Anim Sci, 2019 Creep feeding and its possible interactions with other influential factors (genetics, litter type, and sex) for weaning traits were studied in meat goat kids and their dams. Kids across 3 yr were creep fed (254 kids; 5 pens) or not creep fed (255 kids; 5

Do Prenatally-Conditioned Flavor Preferences Affect Consumption of Creep Feed by Piglets? [PDF]
Animals, 2019 Piglets can prefer flavors that are presented to pregnant sows, hence this study intended to estimate the effect of prenatal exposure of piglets to flavors on the intake of flavored creep feed and performance. Gestational sows were fed either a flavored (

Effects of creep feeding and supplemental glutamine or glutamine plus glutamate (Aminogut) on pre- and post-weaning growth performance and intestinal health of piglets. [PDF]
J Anim Sci Biotechnol, 2013 BackgroundCreep feeding is used to stimulate piglet post-weaning feed consumption. L-Glutamine (GLN) is an important source of fuel for intestinal epithelial cells.

Effects of lactation feed intake and creep feeding on sow and piglet performance.
Journal of Animal Science, 2010 A total of 84 sows (PIC Line 1050) were blocked according to day of farrowing and parity and allotted in a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatments with lactation feed intake (ad libitum vs. restricted) and creep feeding (no vs. yes) as factors.
