Been MIA for a while; but, I can't help bragging a little!

RSC

10 pounds too light to be in the hunt at Tulsa and 10 pounds too heavy to look fresh at KC!

This morning: 229 empty, 238 full and 234 in that picture.  If things go reasonably well for the next 3 weeks, he will get to show this one at 252 in Tulsa.  The two that I think are his best are really young and will be lightweights in Tulsa, but they should be 12 o'clock when/if we go to KC.

What are you feeding ?

Congratulation.  I will have to look you up at Tulsa.

                      32 oz. 17.5
                      6 oz. M-n-M
                      4 oz. Lean Maximizer
                      12 oz. kitchen sink (a mix that I make and am considering marketing)
                      8 fl. oz. Soybean oil
                      4 fl. oz Ensure
                      slopped with goats milk (not goat milk replacer)

Nice pig..  what weight are you shooting for in KC?  

He should weigh just under 295 when we leave and will weigh in at 275 - 278.

He looks good. What is he out of? If I may ask what does your kitchen sink mix do?

Nice barrow ! Showing pigs was my first love and I love feeding one out.

He is a Lickety Split x Sunami.  Kitchen Sink is outstanding for maintaining freshness, bloom and shape with minimal gain.  I think it is unbeatable when combined with Powerfill to absolutely hold one absolutely.  It contains no paylean; so, it is safe for gilts.  It has only been tried twice, but is 2 for 2 on bringing back one that is getting a little stale; did it in only 7 days & 9 days.  100% CLEAN FOR ANY CARCASS OR URINE RESIDUE!  Nothing bad in ... Nothing bad out.

Nice barrow ! Showing pigs was my first love and I love feeding one out.

He refuses to show a calf.  What can I do?

Let him show pigs if that's what he wants, but I didn't really wanna show cattle until I had done it for a year or two...
