ACTIVATE
The kick-start for piglets, for activation and intestinal health.
During the birth process a piglet is at greater risk of dying than at any other stage of its life. Piglets are born deficient in energy but have a very high energy requirement because of high physical activity, for thermoregulation and high heat production in muscle tissues. Newborn piglets rely on three different sources of energy: glycogen, colostrum and transient milk. Since glycogen reserves are limited, the piglet is completely dependent on colostrum and transient milk for energy.
How to use the AHV Piglet Activate
Applying AHV Piglet Activate gives piglets a kick-start and provides an energy boost. The piglets are more energetic and get to the udder quicker. It triggers piglets to drink more colostrum and transient milk, leading to better stimulation of milk production by the sow.
AHV Piglet Activate is to be administered orally. Using a drencher, 2ml is given to small (BW 1.1kg) and weak(ened) piglets as soon as possible after taking colostrum, within 24 hours after birth.
In specific cases, repeat after 24 hours, for up to five days. Store and administer the product at room temperature.
