Supplement to give full look
Looking for suggestions for what supplement works to give pigs that full look to them. I appreciate any info anyone can provide.

We like moorbody or depth chage
Re: Supplement to give full look
Ultra Full by Purina is my favorite. It works in the lower third of the flank and helps drop the belly. It has a higher fat content which helps pigs consume it. I've been using it since it came out and love it. Takes about 30 days to start seeing results.
I have used Moorbody too with good results, it's just hit or miss whether the pigs will eat it.
Another thing to consider is that sometimes just upping your total feed intake can help with fill also.

Or if your on a budget give them all the beet pulp they want a week before and then all the way up to show

I found pigs eat depth charge way better than beat pulp and it is relatively inexpensive ( abut $12 a bag)All is Well wrote:Or if your on a budget give them all the beet pulp they want a week before and then all the way up to show

During the feeding period, Essential Feeds Grenade is a great product for this. It's a very palatable beet pulp and oat based product that has some added fat and a honey flavor. At the show, Essential's Keep 'n On electrolyte will give you great results.

I've never had much luck getting pigs to drink Keep N On. Plus the red color doesn't work so well for white pigs!! I even tried pouring it over bread to get them to eat it.
