Feed


We buy most of our pig feed in bulk. There is a discount based on the number of tons you buy.


We used to buy all of our feed in bags, it was time consuming to keep opening feed bags and we had piles of empty feed bags.


Prior to feed delivery I make sure the bins are clean. Sometimes feed gets stuck to the sides of the bin, plus there are salts and minerals that cause rust.


Two of our bins have an auger at the bottom. There is a an access panel that lets me vacuum or chip out feed that is caked to the sides of the bin.
