Re: Products to replace Paylean
Paylean is its own drug all together. We like the Showrite Muscle n Motion instead of Paylean.

Re: Show Pig camps
If you can check out a Next Level camp. We really liked the camp and it helped the kids lots. We have not been to any others so I can't comment on those. They should have camps posted on their website.

Re: 5year old boar
The boar's main purpose is so settle sows. If he is still settling sows I don't think you need to worry. That being said, most 5 year old showpig boars are past their prime. If your just using him for heat checking then just continue using him, but if he isn't settling pigs, one of his testes if swo...

Re: Changing protein levels throughout growth
Perhaps they are changing the type of protein. All starter feeds are higher in protein but they also use animal based proteins instead of plant based protein. ie milk, fish meal, etc vs soy bean. KGB when is it that piglets can digest the soy if I recall it is about 6 to 7 weeks of age. They protein...

Re: Feed prices
Let me know if you do get it for that price. We are in Utah and I would drive up there to get that for that price!. I was wondering if you got the prices flip flopped or they quoted them flopped. Let us know

Re: Feed prices
Where are you located in Idaho?
I am not sure on the Showrite 19G and we haven't used ADM. We plan on using Showrite this year and are considering ADM for next year. We feed the Showrite Team 18 and we are $16 a bag. If you need some PM me and we can get you some. We are in UT

Re: New Show mom needs help
Personally I think getting her a pen mate would help. Ask the breeder if he has a non showpig out of the litter he might sell you. Pigs do better with a mate than alone. Ask the breeder what they were feeding and try to get the same thing then blend in what you will be feeding. Just my 2 cents. Hold...

What didn't you like about the showrite? Just curious as we are going to try to use it this year. We were planning on getting the kickstart and start that at 10 days then go to the 50mg for 2 weeks then the Meca. TIA

Re: Where to get steamed rolled oats ??
Its just oatmeal. We have a hard time finding animal grade oats so we just buy human oatmeal. I look for 50 pound bags. We have a Winco that carries it. I bet Costco, Sam s club, or your local grocery store carries it.

Re: thoughts on milk replacer
We use sow milk replacer. Sometimes there aren't enough teats and you have to supplement until they are weaned. Is this what you mean or in feed up to show? KGB what is the value of milk replacer or an egg? I would assume that powerfill has similar protein to fat ratio of this items. I think I calcu...

Re: Swollen lymph node or Fat Pocket
We have a vet. She works great, but seriously, treating lymph nodes that are swollen are night and day different then treating fat pockets. I would be suspicious of cervical abscess. Which lymph nodes are you talking about? Location? Take it's temperature, if fever you likely have infection. Fat poc...
