Does anyone know how to make a bluebutt pig gain weight quicky??
It's my first year raising a pig and when my 4h pig leader got her she was less than 25 pounds. I personally think she is too young and its apart of my problem of her not gaining weight. She currently is 165pounds and fair is about two weeks away, August 4-15th. These past two weeks she hasn't gained ANY weight. We have been feeding her; cake mixes mixed with her paylean food, Morfat,Show Bloom, Bannanas,Apples, Milk to flavor her food, any leftovers we have from dinner, Eggs, Rice, ect. It has also been pretty hot at the pens so i go down there and hose down her pen to keep her cool, and trying to get her to eat about four times a day. She has constant acess to food as well. Minimum weight is 210 and max is 280.
Any tips would be extremely apperciated. Thank you.
