I've raised hogs for a few years now. 40-50 lbs. is a good starting weight but it takes more like 16 week to get to buthering weight on corn and supplements. I usually go with a 4 parts corn to 1 part supplement which gives you around 15% protein.When I back figure my usage I have about 6 bushels of corn per hog. Raised on concrete I'll put anywhere from 3 to 8 in my pens that are 6 feet by 20 and have no problems. I do try to fork out the pens once a week when I have more in the pens. I've named my pigs if they are unusual and so have my kids, but we all started with the idea they a food just like cupcakes (sounds cute but they're good to eat).

We have a few auction barns around, I can pick up feeder for around $25.00 to $35.00 each with thier shots.
