skin health

Post by gjoe821 » Sun Oct 19, 2014 4:32 pm

Any suggestions on stuff to put on pigs skin and hair? Inexpensive preferably. We have champion drive but that gets costly

We use a lot of Champions Choice particularly in the summer because the citronella in it helps with flies and mosquitoes. The big cheap bottles of body lotion you can buy at big box retailers works well and the other thing folks use is barbasol shaving lotion.
