The aims of the study were to assess how teat fidelity was affected by allosuckling and how allosuckling affected weight gains of piglets. The occurence of allosuckling had no significant effect on the teat fidelity. Likewise, allosuckling had no effecton weight gains of allosucklers and it did not impair own piglets of the sows.
