if your going to eat the pigs  do yourself a favor and feed them grain ...people don't realize  most pigs we eat in the winter  is acorn and corn fed off deer feeders ...... we owned an operated a custom slaughterhouse and a meat market in town when I was  in my 20's ....... slop fed  hogs are prone to disease that's why you are souse too cook it before feeding it ...... if you have  some  pigs  calf  dreep pellets  work real good ...I helped my uncle butcher 5  head  of listed hamps average 254 pounds a piece 5 months  old self feeders calf creep pellets ...one of the littermates got over into another pen and was fed rice bren and cops 175 pounds ....worming and feed make a huge difference ....now wild pigs don't grow like domestic's  I know .....  plus  stress is a big factor keep a dark place the wild ones can hide  and they will grow better .....protein grows pigs ....
It was way to much to import grain..but you are right it can cause problems if you don't cook it they just had a 55 gan dum that would cook the slop then feed
