Still Hungry

Post by Woodymay » Thu Jun 12, 2008 9:52 pm

When cutting feed back, what can be done to keep pigs filling full? I'm feeding 2# of Powerfill and 2# of 18% Honor Finisher. I've read about the beet pulp, but can this be used for long periods? We have 30 days until weigh in.

Beet pulp is the best if you are in a tight holding position. You can feed it as long as you want to just remember that there is little to no nutritional value in beet pulp so you cant replace it with feed.
