The objective of this work was to evaluate diets fed from 21 to 63 days of age on piglets performance. Ninety-six piglets three crossbrad were fed with two types of diets: simple and complex. A completely randomized design with two treatments and twelwe replicates per treatment was used. The daily feed intake (DFI), the daily weight gain (DWG), the feed:gain ratio (F:G) and the weights were evaluated in the period. The piglets fed with complex diets had higher DFI and DWG in the post lactation. In the period (nursery phase), there was no diet type effect on weight and the F:G.
