Weaning or weaner pigs stage

The stage that comes after lactation (after the weaning event), in which the piglets are taken away from their dam and normally proceed to eat only solid food (compound feed) and water. It normally lasts 7-8 weeks and the piglets can grow approximately 20-25 kg during this stage.
