Best supplement for upper and lower fill

Post by ddwil » Thu Jul 27, 2017 10:35 am

I am needing to fill out a pig in its upper rib and lower 1/3 in about a weeks time. What is the best supplement that will accomplish this while still keeping their shape to their top as well

Lower fill is a little tougher in a weeks time, but High Octane Depth charge from Purina is the way to go for overall fill. Increasing feed in general will help overall with fill.

Upper rib & building top - Essential Wide Open @ 1-1.5 lb per day.
Lower body fill - Essential Grenade @ 1-1.5 lb per day.
