Low-Profile Piglet Creep Feeder

The Low-Profile Piglet Creep Feeder is designed for introducing dry creep feed to young piglets while they are still housed with the sow. Its reduced trough height allows small and early-weaned piglets to reach feed more easily than with conventional deeper feeders.

The circular feeding pan provides access from all directions, while integrated dividers help organize feeding positions and limit piglets entering or standing inside the trough. A spring-loaded floor hook provides fast attachment to compatible slatted flooring.

The watertight trough can also be used for milk replacer or other suitable supplemental feeding programs, making the feeder a practical option for commercial farrowing houses and piglet creep areas.

• Low-Profile Design: Provides easier access for very young and early-weaned piglets.
• 360-Degree Feeding Access: Round construction allows piglets to approach from all sides.
• Watertight Trough: Suitable for dry creep feed and compatible milk-replacer applications.
• Integrated Feed Dividers: Help organize feeding positions and reduce piglet interference.
• Feed-Saver Profile: Raised outer edges help retain feed inside the pan.
• Quick Floor Attachment: Spring-loaded hook allows fast installation and removal.
• Durable Molded Construction: Lightweight, corrosion-free body suitable for repeated farrowing cycles.
• Easy Cleaning: Smooth molded surfaces simplify washing and disinfection.

• Low-Profile Circular Pan: Provides a shallow feeding area accessible to small piglets.
• Radial Divider Grid: Creates several feeding spaces around the trough.
• Central Support Post: Connects the feeder body with the locking mechanism.
• Upper Locking Handle: Allows quick tightening and release during installation.
• Spring-Loaded Hook: Locks underneath compatible slatted flooring.
• Feed-Saver Rim: Helps contain feed and reduce spillage around the creep area.

Fresh creep feed is placed directly into the shallow circular trough. Piglets can approach from any direction and eat from the divided feeding spaces.

The floor hook is inserted through a compatible slat opening and rotated into its locking position. Spring pressure and the upper handle keep the feeder securely against the flooring during use.

For cleaning or relocation, the locking mechanism is released and the feeder can be removed without permanent floor hardware.

Installation:

• Position the feeder in the piglet creep area where it cannot easily be reached or damaged by the sow.
• Insert the spring-loaded hook through a compatible flooring opening.
• Use the direction indicator or handle position to orient the hook beneath the flooring.
• Push and turn the locking mechanism until the feeder is securely fixed.
• Confirm that the feeder remains stable before adding feed or milk replacer.

Maintenance:

• Provide small quantities of fresh feed and remove stale residues regularly.
• Clean the trough thoroughly after milk-replacer use.
• Wash and disinfect the feeder between farrowing batches.
• Inspect the spring, floor hook and locking handle for wear.
• Replace damaged locking components before returning the feeder to service.

Q1: Why use a low-profile creep feeder?

The lower feeding edge makes it easier for very young piglets to find and access supplemental feed.

Q2: What is the reference height of the low-profile model?

The reference low-profile configuration is approximately 2.75 inches or 70 mm high.

Q3: Can it be used for milk replacer?

Yes. The watertight trough allows suitable milk replacer to be offered to young piglets requiring supplemental nutrition.

Q4: How is the feeder attached to the floor?

A spring-loaded hook passes through the slatted flooring and locks underneath it, allowing rapid installation and removal.

Q5: Can piglets feed from all sides?

Yes. The round design provides all-around access and multiple feeding positions.

Q6: Where should the feeder be positioned?

It should normally be placed in the creep area where piglets have easy access but the sow cannot step on or damage the feeder.

Q7: What information is required for a quotation?

Please provide the required quantity, piglet age, flooring type, slat-opening dimensions, preferred feeder height, feed type and project location.
