Re: 155 days to get to 280 lbs. ?
Depends on breed and feeding program. You can get a Duroc there easily. If your feeding crosses it will be a little harder but can be done if you are hand feeding, using a quality feed and supplement tile TrueGlo

Re: Show Rite Accent versus Sure Champ
I have not used the Show Rite product but have used sure champ. I like TrueGlo CR way better than sure champ.

Re: Slow feeder/temperamental feeder
Stay with the showtec feed but get rid of all the other junk. Add oat goats and take away feed after 20-30 minutes. Also purchase TrueGlo CR and start top dressing. It is the absolute best product on the market to keep them eating and healthy.

Re: Electrolyte supplement
Dolfan I need something that will keep these pigs on feed while travelling 30+ hours. What do you recommend? There is so much out there that claim to do the trick. I need something to feed either the whole time on feed or just before travel. I have fed sure champ the whole feed period and they did ...

Re: Stress or Fatigue....? Help..
I would guess the pig stressed because on a combination of being washed in cold weather ( would not recommend that in the future) being walked after the wash and being handled more aggressively than normal. He should be fine as long as he did not get sick after being washed in that kind of weather.

Re: Feed and supplement
We like to start our pigs on TrueGlo CR and TrueTrac at the start of the product but you can start the true trac at 150 and do just fine as the benefits are important as they start to get heavier and the added weigh puts stress on legs and joints. Like I said I prefer Moormans base feed, we have als...

Re: Electrolyte supplement
We sure haven't found anything better than our TruePurple product. We just got a note from a customer that said " purple makes them eat everything you put in front of them. Then they'll eat the pen if you don't keep putting feed and water in front of them." We used TruePurple this year af...

Re: Pigs gaining...should we hold?
Do not start holding below 175 lbs. You can easily slow them down to 1.5 lbs a day when their are bigger and cruise into your show looking good.

Re: Feed and supplement
True glo CR and True track are great products. True glo will help keep them healthy and have a healthy appetite. True trac will help with joint health. I prefer Moormans as a base feed but out of the two you mentioned I would feed linders if I had the choice.
