Hog Feed Feeding Guide
What feed does my pig need at each weight?
Pigs get fed in phases: protein steps down as the pig grows because the fast early muscle growth slows down. A typical program looks like this, then adjusts again for breeding animals.
| Phase | Weight range | Protein (typical) |
|---|---|---|
| Baby pig starter | 0–15 lb | 20% |
| Pig starter | 16–50 lb | 18% |
| Grower 1 | 51–125 lb | 16% |
| Grower 2 | 126–200 lb | 14% |
| Finisher | 200 lb to market | 12% |
| Sow, pregnant | , | 15% |
| Sow, nursing | , | 16% |
What's different about feeding a sow with piglets?
Nursing is the hardest-working phase of the whole cycle. A sow making milk needs roughly three times the nutrition of a pregnant sow. Sows are usually fed all they want after farrowing and commonly eat 14–15 pounds a day. Pregnancy is the opposite problem: hold feed back to keep her in good condition without getting over-fat, and use high-fiber ingredients to keep her feeling full.
Do you carry non-GMO hog feed?
Yes, we stock non-GMO options in the hog line alongside conventional rations, including our Show Pig Feed 16% Protein Non-GMO. And one practical reminder for any hog operation: pigs drink roughly twice their feed weight in water, so a ration change is a good moment to check waterers and flow rates too.
