I'm needing information on how to make my hog gain weight.  She is 153 pounds as of today, our fair is Aug 6 and she needs to be at least 210 to 280.  We're feeding her Showtec, fast fuel, milk supplement, and electrolites in the water.  She is a bluebutt/back, long and lean and good muscle tone..just needs to weigh more.   All suggestions needed.

Can you buy just plain paylean??  I know the feed that I'm feeding her has paylean in it...it is Showtec.  Have you ever heard of useing wet molasses over the dry feed??

I will sure try the cake mix.  I have tried Boost vitamin drink and she loved it but then I was told it may take her away from her food.  But if it works and won't interfere with the food..I'll do it again.  I have also heard of using Jello and Pudding mix over the food...Has anyone tried this one??

Another thing I have tried and she loves is bananas.  I mix them with the powdered fat stuff we're using...don't remember the name of it but I know it's by showtec.  I was also told today to get some fresh cows milk and give her...has anyone heard of any of these and tried them??
