Re: Pigs that dont want to break

What about pigs that will only go out when thier pen mate is out. She stresses wen we try to walk her alone. Grunts and squeals the entire time we try to walk her. Her breathing is extra heavy too. Completely ok when she's out with her buddy. Should I use something to calm her. 21 days until fair,

Why Powerfuel and Heavyweight?

Why not use one or the other? Why use them together?
