Wanted to get a little extra gain out of my pigs so I decided to try giving them a shot of Vit. B12. Just wondering who has experience with this and how soon should I notice feed intake start going up. Thanks

I'm wondering if there is anyone out there that has used it and what their results were with it.

First person to say Huggy Bear is docked 50 life points. I think Home Grown at Hi Point had a pretty good summer. I'm looking forward to seeing pigs out of Penner's hamp boar First Aid

How soon they start selling semen out of him should let you read into how good of a job he does for them.

<t>Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) helps prevent a pig from stressing out by reducing lactic acid build up in the muscles. Lactic acid is formed from anaerobic respiration in the muscles caused by a lack of oxygen getting to the muscle. This happens often in pigs that are stress positive or stress ...

My cost for a 40# bag is just over $38

If you want something to add rib without slowing down growth. Use Kent Essential Wide Open. I've used it the past couple years and I think it has done a rather good job for what my expectations were.
