heavy weight
When can I start heavy weight? I have a 12 week old pig who is very muscular but only weighs 50 lgs. His sister 65 lbs. Both have been wormed.
Re: heavy weight
Evaluate your pig and see if you need to feed a lower protein diet. We started adding Rice Bran oil when our pigs where about 125lbs. It is fat but also has other benefits.
Re: heavy weight
You can start Heavy Weight now. At this size, start at 2 oz per day. In 5 to 7 days increase to 4 oz per day.
When the pig gets to 100 lbs increase to 8 oz per day
When the pig reaches 150 lbs increase to 12 oz per day.
Mix the Heavy Weight with enough water to make a milk shake like consistency and then add to the feed.
