The Wet/Dry Sow feeder optimizes feed intake during the
critical production phase. By bringing together the advantage of a wet/dry
feeder and adaptability to suit the individual personality of each sow, the sows
consume more feed and produce more milk. Healthy sows produce healthier litters.

-
Sows eat more and waste less-
The nipple is placed low in the feeder to provide ample water with minimal
wastage. By placing the water nipple in the feed compartment, sows do not
have to remove their head from the feeder to get water. The result means
that sows have 6.0% greater average daily feed intake with minimal wastage.
The sows with greater daily feed intake produce more milk.
-
Adjusts to Each Sow's Appetite- An
adjustment slide can be set to suit each sow, wider for the slow
eaters and tighter for those with more aggressive appetites. The feeder pan
is curved and the nipple placement is low so that water accumulation is
minimized.
-
Heavier Litters, More Piglets- The
pigs get the essential start that they need.
-
