Abstract
A crate crib attachment (10) is disclosed which is mounted by means of a plurality of adjustable mounting brackets (30) upon a topmost end portion of a farrowing crate (20). Baby piglets placed within the crib attachment are separated from the mother pig for safety purposes, yet remain in close proximity during their pre-nursery growth period.
