My sons cross weighs 162 and needs to weigh 180 (after trailer loss) by January 9th for county show.
Currently we are feeding Linder 612-3 lb, fat powder- 1 lb, oats-1 lb...all twice a day. She was doing good, but has now slowed her eating tremendously. Tried adding Boost drink to her feed to no avail. Started with strawberry cake mix today and for her 2 feed it hasn’t seemed to help much. When we feed, she roots around in her food like she is looking for something.
Please help, I need this pig to make weight!!!
Need FAST weight gain
Re: Need FAST weight gain
That's a lot of feed for a pig that size.
If it were me I'd just feed the Lindner's at this point. Short feed to get the pig cleaning up the feed. At the show plan to weigh in close to the end and after a feeding, with plenty of water available. I don't think I have to tell you that you need a miracle.
