Feeding and breeding pigs for better litters guidance
H D Richardson Agricultural Representative Beausejour Dugald explains flushing before breeding raises ovulation and litter size by feeding 8 pounds daily 10 to 14 days prior. Pregnant sows need four to four and a half pounds daily, rising with stress or poor housing. Lactating sows require up to 14 pounds daily with 13 percent protein, gradual feed increase recommended to prevent mastitis and maintain digestion, with weaning by week five or six to save costs.
