Breeding cross sow with opb

I'm thinking about breeding my York appearing cross sow to a duroc, or spot. Does anyone know what her offspring would look like? Or if there is a good boar that throws berk color? Anything opb.

Inducing bred gilt

I have a bred gilt due on monday. I know bred gilts sometimes go a little longer than 114 days. My question is what would happen if I induced her on day 112 and her go into labor on day 113? That way I could be there for sure on Sunday and Monday for the babies?

Feed bred gilt

I am currently feeding my bred gilt 4 pounds once a day of Linder 690. It is a 15% protein. My breeder said to stay at 12% or lower until 10 days before farrowing. My question is what's the best feed for her before fardowing? I can't seem to find anything under 15% protein.

Crossing duroc gilt with Poland boar

I have a duroc gilt that I was planning on breeding. What would I get if I crossed her with a Poland boar? Would I get cross piglets or purebred?

Re: Kgb best showday pop from purina

Thank you! For all you do on here! It's really helpful! We usually start with fitter 35, champion drive, and paylean for top shape and have had good success, I was just wondering with all the great feeds, and additives purina has that they would have something like that as well!

Re: Electrolyte supplement

Thank you! I will try it for our next show! We've been using bloom n secret but it's so hard trying to get them to eat the whole tube of paste. Even when mixed with food they don't like the taste
