Question: My daughters show pigs have been eating the Showpig Finisher. We weighed them last night, June 10, and they are big. They are weighing 225 and 205, they need to be between 235 and 280 but not until July 20. I am planning on switching them to either the Powerfill or the Fitter, I am not sure which one I need, I am guessing the Powerfill. Any suggestion will greatly appreciated. We like your feed strategies and the feed is great, keep up the good work.

Answer: Thank you very much for your question, and for choosing Honor Show Chow.

Powerfill is a high energy product it will maintain body condition while you slow the pigs growth. Fitter 35 is a very low energy product and it will reduce body condition while you limit growth.

For a 1 lbs per day growth rate feed 3 lbs per day Powerfill. If you want the pigs to gain 1 1/2 lbs per day feed 2 lbs Finisher and 2 lbs Powerrfill per day.

Thanks again,
