Naming swine for breed papers

We bought a purebred Gilt from a breeder and we received the papers from the Spot association. We are wanting to officially name her for future breeding purposes instead of the number that was assigned. What do we need to do or is it possible?

Re: Middle and backend

I have been feeding:
16ozs 809
16ozs Champion Drive
8ozs Depth Charge
4ozs Heavy Weight

His back legs are like twigs and ribs have no cover. Front end looks good. He isn't eating much at all right now.

Re: Middle and backend

So basically I need to add rib and rear flank. I'm shutting down full feed and going to feed twice a day. Barrow weighs 240 and would like to see around 270-275. I have access to 809, champion drive, depth charge, and heavy weight. Show is 8/13/16. How would you feed?

Re: Middle and backend

We are very new at this. We keep them at our ag center and they basically are on full feed. I do go out once a day when we walk them and mix in Champion drive with the 709 in a separate feeder.

Middle and backend

We have a Spot barrow that weighs 233# right now. We have another show 8/11. Last judge said front looked amazing but the middle and rear was disappointing. What can I do feed wise to help?

Heavy Weight Storage...

First time poster!!! :mrgreen:

I have about half a bucket of Heavy Weight left. Can I freeze it and it stay fresh? I thought I had read that on here somewhere but I cant find it.

Thanks.
