Weaned piglets prefer feed with hydroxychloride trace minerals to feed with sulfate minerals [PDF]

Translational Animal Science, 2019
Abstract The aim of this study was to determine whether newly weaned piglets had a preference for diets containing hydroxychloride trace minerals (HTM). To test this, two preference tests were set up. In Exp. 1, the piglets could choose between HTM or inorganic, originating from sulfate trace minerals (STM) in the form of sulfates.
