Effect of pig weaning age and commingling after the nursery phase on humoral and behavioral indicators of well-being and on growth performance [PDF]
, 2004 Two hundred and sixteen pigs were weaned at 14 or 21 d of age to determine the effect of weaning age and commingling after the nursery phase on growth and behavior of pigs in a wean-tofinish facility.
