If you have a cheese plant around you you can buy their waist cheese pretty cheap also donut shops will give away unbought donuts

Charles, if you go with sweet feed, go real heavy molasses. The other pellets with produces way to much ground up uneaten waste. I have a deal now with a couple local grocers and donut places. And it has helped. The other thing I must recommend is build a good long slop trof. It will cut down on wasted food. Good luck.

so it may just be stress then. i still want to pack on weight, and he has a sever temper issue. if he dont like the food bowl in his way, he roots it, throws it and takes out his anger on it. gonna hav to get a heavier trough.

Rice bran will do it. But what I do is hit the dumpsters at our HEB, you'd be surprised at what you can get and how much. Just don't let your friends catch you dumpster diving! Lol
