Urine and faeces production, water intake and body condition were investigated in 19 pregnant gilts fed a concentrated (CONC: 2 kg d−1, 2.2% CF) or high-fibre diet (HF: 3.6 g d−1 20.4% CF). Gilts fed HF drank less (P < 0.05) than CONC, but urine excretion did not differ significantly. More faeces were excreted by HF than CONC (P < 0.001), with similar dry matter contents. Total daily manure production, body weight and backfat thickness were similar among treatments. Key words: Fibre, sow, manure, urine, faeces, gestation
