Suckling weaners are a tool used in livestock farming to wean young animals such as calves, piglets or lambs from sucking the mother's mammary glands. They are used to speed up the weaning process and reduce the young animal's dependence on the mother's milk.

If the young animals are not weaned, they may remain dependent on the mother's milk for longer than necessary, thereby affecting the mother's milk yield. The use of suckling weaners can also help to reduce the risk of injuries that can occur from sucking on the mammary glands.

It is important that suckling weaners are used properly and carefully to ensure the welfare of the young animals. They should only be used when the young animal is of sufficient age and weight and should be used under veterinary supervision to minimise possible health risks.
