Cajun, thats what i was wondering, if the protein would cancel each other out to an extent. i do have 2 segregated in an old dog kennel. the 1 I'm wanting barr seems to be packing on weight (fat more than anything) from the loose flabby skin behind his front shoulders and in front of his hind legs. the other will be my blonde breeder boar once i can get a blonde sow out of another litter. if at their current age would be better, ill try and get it done my next rotation home, but got some heavy electrical work to do first and iv gotta get some anti biotic and find my skin stapler and the staples.

Hyan, they are not on a specified feeding program and heck, free food, even if its less in fat and protein will still come out cheaper than buying feed at $12 a bag. iv been giving them 2-3lbs of feed a day and at 6 months, was gonna increase to 6 lbs a day, so supplementing with free food if always welcome. just gotta find a school or restaurant that would give it away. go buy some plastic 55 gal barrels with lids and once they are full, either myself or the wife can go pick them up, but I'm gonna have to build block and tackle system so to speak so the wife will be able to load the full barrels. I'm guessing they will weigh 2-300lbs per and she won't be able to roll them into the tck bed as easy as i can, if at all.

Why should I trade one tyrant three thousand miles away for three thousand tyrants one mile away? An elected legislature can trample a man's rights as easily as a king can!
