Baby Pig Restart One-4 Indications

A blend of milk fat, milk sugars, animal fat, blood plasma and electrolytes intended to provide essential nutrients for the energy-deficient young piglet.

Baby Pig Restart One-4 Dosage And Administration

Top Dressing: Top dress eight ounces of BABY PIG RESTART™ ONE-4 on the pig starter twice a day for every eight to ten pigs during the first 48 hours after weaning.

Drinking Water: For pigs of any age, showing signs of stunting or starving, mix eight ounces of BABY PIG RESTART™ ONE-4 in two quarts of water and feed continuously in flat pan or drinking bowl.

Oral Drenching for One- to Five-Day-Old Pigs: Mix four ounces of BABY PIG RESTART™ ONE-4 (one part) with eight ounces of water (two parts). Shake or stir well to make a suspension. Slowly administer 15 millimeters (1/2 ounce) of the suspension on the back of the tongue and repeat as needed for severely stunted or starved one- to five-day-old piglets.

Precaution(s)

Store in a dry room at temperatures between 4°C and 30°C (40°F-86°F). Once bag is opened, seal bag with tape or binder and place unused portion in a dry air sealable container.

Discussion

BABY PIG RESTART™ ONE-4 is specifically designed to help prevent starveouts and stunting in young pigs that are not consuming sufficient or adequate energy from their milk or pig starter intake.

Why Baby Pigs Starve and Stunt: When a pig is born, it has a short six to twelve hour energy reserve within its body. Most healthy farrowed pigs have a two to four hour blood, liver and tissue energy supply and a body fat reserve equivalent to about 1 1/2 percent of its body weight.

If a baby pig doesn't receive fat and lactose rich milk within two to three hours after farrowing, it will use up its limited energy reserve very quickly. From birth to four weeks of age, pigs require substantial amounts of energy to maintain their body temperature. Chilling, diarrhea and environmental stress burn up the young pig's energy reserve at an increased rate, predisposing the pig to hypoglycemia and starvation. Primary causes of baby pig mortality are dehydration and the hypoglycemia associated with inadequate milk intake during nursing or the lack of sufficient energy intake after weaning.

Fast growing, healthy pigs reach 12-14 pounds body weight between 21 and 24 days of age and normally develop a body fat content of 12-15 percent of their body weight as they approach weaning age. The normal stress of weaning causes a rapid depletion of energy and body fat. Recent research has shown that normal pigs, without the stress of diarrhea, utilize or burn up 35-50 percent of their body fat within 36 hours after weaning. To reduce weaning stress, even normal, healthy pigs require quick energy within hours after weaning. Their body fat reserves frequently drop to seven to nine percent of their body weight with just normal weaning stresses.

Pigs with added diarrhea stress at weaning are significantly more susceptible to dehydration, stunting and starving as their energy and electrolyte intake and fat reserves are not sufficient to maintain normal body temperature and metabolism.
