Number of functional teats: 4 x 4 = 16

The number of teats and the position are important. We are working towards a standard of 16 teats in total: 4 sets above the navel and 4 sets below the navel.

With the overall goal that the number of functional teats is the same as the number of total born piglets, a high quantity and quality of colostrum is easily accessible. This, in combination with the natural mothering ability of the Hypor Libra, limits the need for nurse sows and milk replacers.
