Alright hog men, I'm looking to mess with fattening out some hogs for the freezer. It's been a long time since I had some pigs around here so
I'm looking for some information. I have ear corn, access to oats, and I have a gehl 2 ton grinder mixer and I plan on buying bean meal and
mineral as supplement. The questions I have are as follows:
What is a good feed recipe for a 2 ton mix given that I have ear corn, oats, and bean meal?
I'm doing this as a winter project on the side mostly for friends and family and to put something in the barn for winter, not looking to raise hogs
commercially, so I was thinking around 10-12 pigs. How many ton of feed would it take to finish a dozen feeders from say 40-50 lb to fat hogs?
Thanks in advance.
