Handheld - weaners & growers

When they are six weeks old, piglets are moved to weaner pens where they will begin to be fattened for slaughter. Weaner and grower pens are breeding grounds for cats, rats and flies and many pigs suffer from painful injuries and infected wounds. Pigs will live in these filthy pens until they are roughly six months old when they are transported to the slaughterhouse.
