We had the same experience with our meat chickens back during Covid. We couldn’t get the feed we always used. Had no choice but to go with AG store brand and the birds would eat it but at 2 weeks past our normal processing time the birds averaged 1-2 lbs less then our normal average weight. So cheap isn’t the best option. You might pay a little more for quality feed but when it comes to your animal’s health and your finished product you’re always better off. Another great video.
Absolutely. I’ve heard varying opinions on this feed and because of the popularity of the store I bought it. I’m sure they eventually would have ate it but with the sows farrowing I can’t risk the effects. The feed I normally buy from a smaller individual has won multiple awards animals eating it from sheep, pigs, goats, cows etc constantly win Champion and Reserve Champion at the livestock shows. But I realize people buy feed for convenience and price just like from Farm Stores which I know the feed isn’t very high quality.
Well that's crazy. I guess it makes sense... when you get accustomed to quality, nobody likes inferior stuff. Cool to see piglets again! 11 of them too!
Crazy the difference in feed makes even to the pigs! Momma had some good looking babies! Good looking hogs Glen!
It definitely makes a big difference. Appreciate it

Quality matters a lot. It affects everything especially if it’s not highly digestible. Bad feed just goes through
Could you share your feed data sheet??
I’ll see if I can get the information from my feed guy
Ty id definitely be interested in it
Great looking pigs btw
