Blowing up or out a gilt?
Blowing up or out a gilt?
Had local show today and was told one of my gilts needed blowing out by the judge after the show. Our next show is a couple of weeks and was wondering what I needed to feed. We have been feeding Krave 16% mixed with milk replacer, slopped twice a day and access to a self feeder. The gilt weighs 225 and is exceptional other than that. We did when breed but not grand. We are new to pigs and I'm not sure what to do or really what blowing her out is. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Re: Blowing up or out a gilt?
I think what the judge is referring to is expanding her middle. Use something like Depth Charge, Moorbody, or TNT. I'm sure your feed brand has a similar product.
