how much and when is the best to give? Some say 41 days till show, start on 4 grams for 21 days then bump up to 9 grams for the remaining 20?
What do you think?
pig weight=115
days to show=66 days
weight gain at this time is 3 lbs/day
feed that she is on now is 20% protein

| 21 days prior to show date is plenty. i have tried to use for a longer period, but there were no noticeable results after the first 21 days. the amount you give will be determined by your pigs needs.
