Yea it’s worked out pretty well for the most part. Finishing up my season with it tomorrow. Only downfall I’ve really got is you have to stay on top of keep the feed tray cleaned out. That’s a bit of a chore. It’s made feeding much easier tho
Honestly it depends on the age of course. At the end I was feeding about 125lbs or so each day to 15 pigs. There was some waste but my average hang weight this year was in the 185 range so I’m not upset at all about that.
Thanks for this video, I have plans to build one this month and it's great to see another build also with a smaller IBC.
Glad I could help! 😁
It turned out great

@@mikestrahl I understand, beats doing daily feeding
Absolutely. I feed every 3-4 days now. Way better!
@@mikestrahl how many pounds does a pig go through of feed a day with that set up
