Farming and feeding tips from historical notes

Egg washing time can be reduced with smarter egg gathering and litter management. Gather eggs 3 or 4 times daily, give one nest per five birds, ensure ventilation, and stir litter to prevent caking. Silage fed to sows boosts litter size and lowers costs. Purdue finds 1.4 to 2 more pigs per litter and 16 to 20 percent lower feeding costs. Iowa State notes corn silage is economical in non pasture season when paired with daily corn and protein supplement.
