NEED HELP!!!

i have a awesome gilt for my County fair in 3 weeks... she is 174 lbs and not gaingin weight we have switched feeds, feeding her "crap", getting the feed wet... and soon to b starting B12 shots... what else can i do she needs to make weight the min is 200 and this is my last county fair! ne idea or suggestions will help sooo much!

Try Navigator with the feed or Champions Choice. They have tons of protein and this might help shoot their growth up fairly quickly. You could also give a combo of Navigator and paylean .. This will help a ton.

she is on a 9 gm paylean mix ration with moorbody just switched but still mixing showmaster and moormans 18% moorbody and powered milk! i am out of all my tricks i have no idea what else to do?

Is she eating? or just not gaining ?

she wasnt eating... she is only eating about 1/2 or her food or none at all..... and hardly gainin .5-1.2 lbs which isnt enough!

some pigs just dont eat well. i have heard good thing about inhale. i have never tried it

who makes inhale?

sunglo

oo ok thanks soo much i will see what that is and track it down... where i live not to many ppl carry sunglo

yea around here where i live it is kent, showrite, moormans and honor

yea... ill try to find some

you can also try putting her on some powerfill and power fuel from Honors this has made miracles for some of our late blooming gilts

ok ill see what i can do thanks soo much for all ur help! ne other suggestions please keep the ideas coming!

when was the last time you wormed her that might be a huge factor in her daily gain as well

i have wormed her regularly every month and 30 days before i wormed her 2 times with 2 diff wormers

i have wormed her regularly every month and 30 days before fair withdraw i wormed her 2 times with 2 diff wormers

how long have you had her on the paylean mixture, try putting a teaspoon of baking soda on her feed. Do it everytime you feed it will help sooth her stomach. Paylean sometimes affects their stomach and causes ulcers to act up.

she has only been on paylean for about a week or week n a half,... not very long...

paylean will usually start making them want to eat more

yea thats what i thought and has happened for me in the past i have no idea what she is doin... its makin me go crazy!

If you want to try something that will not kill your wallet and a old trick tought to me by an old breeder. Get some alfalfa grind it up and blend it into there feed add some ordinary table iodized salt and sprincle it over. Most animals love green. And the way that it was explained to we was do you like your food spicy, bland, or or sweet? Not all humans like the same and in some instances not all animals like the same. Sometime we get caught up with keeping with whats new that we forget that maybe just maybe the old timers had it right. So take both the old and the new and modify to what works for you.
I am not guaranteeing that this will work on your problem so try a small amount and if you see some change keep it up. Of course this is just for hogs that have a problem eating. Good questions by g5 . another question would be if she barfs or something else because you might be looking at ulcers. Just a possibility.

she hasnt been puking... my mom has found that the milk replacer may have upset her stomach? is this true? i have no idea... im n oklahoma right now my mom has been takin my place on the ranch and we r doin everything we can over the phone and what not... but i will try to get some alfalfa and see what happens! i just hope she will gain weight soon! her brother on the other hand has been having some issues with weight but nothing like her!

lol i live in oklahoma. my cousin feed mile replacer to his show pigs the whole time they was showed and never had any problems

hahah! ive never heard of it either but i dunno! we have figured out she likes graham crackers and eggs... so if thats what we have to feed on top of everything else we have been feeding so be it i guess... right?

lol yea i would break them up and put it on tope of her feed.
