medicated

Our fair is not allowing us to have show feed with lysin in it anymore. If we want to use it we have to have a vet prescription. Does anyone know any different feeds that will work just as well without the lysin in it? Or should I get the script?

Re: 4-H Pig Critiques Wanted

i seen in the video the big belted hog is walking stiff legged. i would recommend if possible to get a joint lotion and rub that on them when its lying down and bend his legs to get him moving them better. hope this helps!

Re: Pig Calmer Products

if you still have time i recommend taking your hog on a bumpy trailer ride maybe 1,1/2 to 2 weeks before your show to put her in heat so she will show okay for you

Re: Ways to add "cheap" pounds

i needed to add quick weight and one thing i found to help is adding powdered high fat milk and eggs and cake mix. i mixed it all together and it helped them gain weight and eat their other food better for quick weight gain
