HIGH OCTANE SUPPLEMENTS:

Champion Drive - promotes muscle, most noticeably in the pig's top, also delivers Amaferm, TASCO, and octacosanol, does a very nice job on skin and hair as well. feeding rate is 1 lbs per day.

Fitter 35 - promotes muscle, can be fed as a complete feed at 3 lbs per day (or more, but 3 should do it when you need to really slow down weight gain). The main difference between Fitter 35 and Champion Drive is that Fitter 35 burns fat and Champion Drive does not. However, it's a slow burn. It won't crash you pigs. normal feeding rate is 1 to 2 lbs per day depending upon the need.

Power Fuel - energy supplement (calories), really good for skin and hair. Does a nice job adding fat cover and increasing growth rate. Also delivers TASCO, octacosanol, omega 3 & 6 fatty acids, Diamond V yeast culture, zinc methionine (Zinpro), high levels of Vitamins E and C, and more. normal feeding rate is 1/2 to 1 1/2 lbs per day.

Heavy Weight - energy supplement, very useful for adding fat cover much faster than Power Fuel. 70% fat (Power Fuel is 31% fat). normal feeding rate is 4 to 12 oz per day.

Depth Charge - fill creation product, provide mid to high level fill (useful for helping with rib). normal feeding rate is 1/2 to 1 1/2 lbs per day. Expands rapidly after ingestion.

Ultra Full - fill creation product, expands more slowly after ingestion. targets downstream in the digestive tract thereby helping with flank and lower 1/3 of body cavity. normal feeding rate is 1 to 3 lbs per day

Showpig Paylean - delivers ractopamine HCl (Paylean). 2 oz in 6 lb of feed yields the 9 gramst/ton concentration. Also fortified with all minerals and vitamins that pigs starters contain. Contains high level of biotin to help protect pads, and zinc methionine (Zinpro) to help protect hooves

Powerfill - weight management tool. 3 lbs per day = 1 lbs of gain. 3 lbs meets all the pig's daily nutrient requirements. It can also be fed with other High Octane supplements to produce lower than 1 lbs per day gain or more than 1 lbs per day.
