Watering Device There should be one of these in the pen. CHECK YOUR PEN TO SEE IF THERE IS ONE, IF NOT LET ME KNOW!

What do I feed? Moorman’s Show Pig Feed – Grower of at least 18% Acco Showmaster pig Feed – Grower of at least 18% How will we feed the pig? Feed pigs at least 1 ½- 2 pounds per feeding once the pig arrives at the barns in October. Increase the feed as the pig gains weight. Maximum that should be fed is 5 lbs/ day.

Feeding Finisher feed 210 to 260 lbs To determine this we have to evaluate the pig To determine this we have to evaluate the pig We evaluate the pigs at 45 days prior to show and 21 days prior to show December 25 (so we will probably evaluate before we leave for Christmas break) & January 17 This is when we determine supplemental feeding

Care for you Pig Pay attention to your pig. For the 1 st week, just allow it to get used to their new home. If you notice any of the following for more than 1 day LET THE TEACHER KNOW: runny nose, coughing, wheezing when they breath and diarhea. Worm your pig every 21 days. You can add these to the feed or administer in their mouth if it is a liquid. Use any of the following wormers: Atgard or Safe-Guard. Use as directions indicate.

What are we looking for in a pig? What am I looking for on selection day? What is the judge looking for on show day?

Meat Your animal is a Market Animal, which translates to “we want as much meat on that animal as possible!!” The best hogs are the ones with the most lean muscle!

We want a solid frame Body Length – short to med.

Heavy or thick Bones

Wide Body Over base and top.

Wide & Deep Rear End

Muscular Back
