^a,bMeans within the same raw with different superscripts differ significantly (P < 0.05).

¹C, T1, and T2 represents the piglets supplemented with basal diet (control), piglets supplemented with the mixture of essential oils and organic acids and piglets supplemented with antibiotics, respectively.
