I formulate a diet that has 18 to 20% protein while they are growing fast, in heavy molt or producing eggs. The mix has a good about whole grains like oats, milo, shelled corn and BOSS. Since fish and animal offal not available here I use a chick grower with 24% crude protein pull nutrient density up. A little alfalfa pellets also part of mix.

Diet leaner on protein during winter as no growth or repro for almost 4 months. They also eat a lot more then.

It's been along time but as I recall trying to cook an uncastrated sexually mature wild boar hog will run u out the house in under 15min. Ever smelled one if them disgusting azz things? In the woods u can smell them a Mile away. We killed a sow one time and it looked like a smelly pile of mud in the truck. Sorry them things are nasty.
Anyway.....like to kill one

So true, even from a young age those uncut males are pretty unappetizing!

Just need a honey glaze to smear all over that pig. That should fix it right up.

Well if they taste like sh*t no wonder they're all over the place.
How would you rate it compared to a merganser? I can't eat them. Now that is something that tastes like straight garbage!

I think you're going to enjoy that one, nice bow havoc

Thanks. I like it. Seems like a pretty nice bow for the money. We'll see how it goes once I get it all set up correctly.

I use 22% feather fixer (small pellets) mixed with a bit of cracked corn and boss. Free choice oyster shell my birds seem to be doing good with this combo no feather pecking or eating of lost feathers throughout molt.

On a side note even real farm raised hogs stink.

clean, cook, eat. I never got past stage 2. maybe, maybe a young sow maybe.
I'm prolly scarred for life. Like the only time I ever threw up from a smell was a rotten duck egg. Them ducks that hiss with the big red thing on their bill. Went to throw one out the incubator and as I released it exploded on me.
