The Welcome Mat – Enrichment Feeding Mat

$314.00

The 4872 Pig Mat with Handles allows nursery pigs to stay warm while avoiding diseases. Its unique design allows the pig to lay on an elevated surface and stay dry. Creep feed stays in the 1/8″ deep oval indentations and keeps the little pigs from moving it around, wasting this very expensive feed. Each 4872 Pig Mat has a 1 ¼” raised feed lip that keeps creep feed on the mats, keeping the creep feed from passing through the slats. This is a big advantage over smooth or biodegradable hog boards.

Description

  • Besides being great for creep feeding, the 4′ x 6′ high-density polyethylene Wean to Finish Pig Mats are non-conductive and act as a barrier between the pig and the cold floor. Pigs that are cold and chilled use the creep feed they eat to keep warm because they do not have any fat; consequently, they do not gain weight. The greater the heat loss, the more creep feed it will take to offset that loss and produce gains. It is important to note that for every day a nursery pig is stressed, one more day is added to the finishing floor.  Wean to Finish Pig Mats will help the pigs to stay warm, dry, and healthy. This, in turn, can reduce the number of days on the finishing floor for your pig.
