multiple sows in heat

ok lets say that you have 2 or 3 gilts/sows in heat at the same time, your plan is to use a boar natural, i heard that boars can only breed once daily, so how can you get all the gilts/sows covered by the one boar on the farm by using him naturaly.

feeding boar

was wondering what everyone is feeding their boars so that they dont get as big as a house in 18 months to two years old to where you have to get rid of them. because they are to big to breed new young gilts
