Gaining 3 lbs a day
I have a 265 lb gilt who is in 5 lbs 709 and 1 lb 909 a day and gaining 3 lbs a day. She had been gaining 2.5 and I was right on track. I want her to gain 2 to 2.5 per day. Should I cut out the 909?

Re: 275 5 days til weigh in
Good idea but other pig is at 220 which is at lowest limit so I don't want him to lose an ounce!!
He's eating all the 909 he will eat
1 lb champion drive
And 12 oz heavyweight
It's been a stressful summer!!!

Re: gain when adding champion drive
Follow up I fed as above but 3/4 lbs 709 per feed and gain was 1.67 per day so she's 250 lbs. I'm gonna up the 709 so she will gain closer to 2 lbs per day and she will be right at 275. Thanks so much for all your help!!!!

If you are using purina products-post this under purina feed talk and the Purina feed specialist will post answer. He gets back really quickly and is very helpful.

Re: weight gain
My daughter has a heart condition and she does all the feeding since is her project. When I read the warning label I have been hesitant to use it. Our pigs are very sound but I don't know stress negative or not. That's only reason. I may not know enough about it
