Need to regain rib after sickness

Post by brooklyn_p12 » Sat Aug 17, 2019 8:13 am

I have a crossbred gilt that is going to our state fair. Two days ago, she got sick with a fever and just general not feeling well and not wanting to eat. Because if this, she has not ate very well for two days. Today, she has finally stated to eat, even though she still isn’t eating her full ration. At this point, we are 5 days away from state fair. She has always been a pig that we have struggled to get enough belly on. Now, she is very tight ribbed after two days of not eating. Is there anything that we can do/feed to get the rib that she had before getting sick back? Any ideas would be appreciated.

Her ration is currently Linder 685 and 611, oat groats, gut bomb and stuffed.
