| just as Mr. aguilar said i would feed a 16- 18% protein depending on how lean and heavy muscle your pig is and a high fat at least 5.0 I wouldn't feed moorfat tell your hog weighs about 200 lbs. GOOD LUCK! | |

| Lindners has a feed called shape and guts that is 14% mealed feed that works really well to put the fat on the pig | |

| I would use the Honor L200 16% and 1-1.5 lbs. of Power Fuel. I think that is what Mr. Aguilar ment not the Powerfill. The Power Fuel is 35 or 36% Fat. You could also top dress with a scoop of Kid milk replacer. | |

| lower the protein 14% and increase the fat, if on paylean stop... with a pig this lean you should have started thinking about cover 3 months ago. | |
