There are folks that will want to debate this but the answer is almost assuredly Zearalenone.

Do yourself a favor and quit feeding ethanol by product if you are. At current grain prices you aren't saving much by feeding waste products.

I have experienced the same with a gilt prolapseing at about 4 months 116 pounds. A vet pushed it back in and sewed it up. Lasted almost a month and she is starting to prolapse again. Anything to give her? I am feeding the same feed (linders) to several pigs and not experiencing any other problems with gilts.
