Fitter is an old feed that is not available in most of parts of the country. It is intended to limit growth AND decrease fat and increase lean at the same time. That is counter productive to the show ring these days.

That is why it's not available in most parts of the country. If you want more information feel free to e-mail me at:

I sure hope honor isnt planning on discontinuing it. Its a great feed to feed for a couple weeks to get some fat off your pig to get him looking like a show barrow again. Ive used it for a couple years now its a great supplement if the pig needs it. Just dont feed it to long or you will burn your hog out.

You will be happy to know that Fitter is part of the new HONOR Show Chow lineup. It will more than likely only be available out of our Richmond, IN distribution center. But, the DC services most of the country in one way or another. It just takes some time in some parts of the country.
