Yeah, I was not going to grind my own. Thanks for the info.

Kalmbach is very good, its just about the same price as showtec and those other show feeds. It really doesnt have anythin different to it then showtec in my opinion. I know one huge hog farmer/shower, who uses it with great results.

I know I will need to talk to my feed representative, but I was going to get Showpig users opinion before hand as well- I have recently purchased two hampshire pigs, they are about 35 lbs and they are one barrow and a gilt. The barrow has a little wider top to him, but the they both don't look too b...

<t>I'm not the one one with the knowledge on here, but I just want to say that it's possible that this gilt does not like to eat. I had a close to underweight pig last year for the same reason... He would't eat. even if I adde tasty things to his feed and kept a fan on him and went out 4 times a day...

Yup, hand feed her. She will eventually talk for her food and look forward to it every feeding.

<t>I found two multi species supplements that can be fed to all classes of animals, and it's supposed to increase feed consumption, provide a better coat quality, and increase muscle defintion. I have show pigs, amd meat rabbits and next year i might be raising a show steer. Anyways I found that bot...

hamps and durocs.

I am in Homerville- near medina- but I did talk to Dave from Town and Country Feed Store in west salem ohio. He was the one who suggested the oats and either Champion Drive or powerfill.

Nevermind I thought I was going to end up feeding powerfill, but my dad won;t let me buy it. I would if I could though.- Sorry that I'm being a bother.

<t>Yeah, were allowed to show without any ear notches or tags - they tag them at the weigh in before fair. As you can see my pigs are not the best genetically and I said the good one has the bad leg which I got bad luck with. That didn't show when I picked him out. I'm just afraid that if I don't ho...

<t>Ok, Right now I am feeding them their dewormer starter feed so i can deworm them, I just stated feeding that because it's been a month since they had a dewormer. I am adding about 3 lbs for each pig and then another 1/2 lb of oats per pig. This is 3.5 lbs of feed TWICE a day. When that feed is go...
