Whats the best thing to feed pigs? Is it bags of food from a feed bealer like bocm pauls or just feeding corn?

Just corn won't give them protein to grow strong, they need pig nuts from a supplier like BOCM or a.n. other.

See www.gospbc.co.uk under pig management tab

just stick clear of farmgate - well documented about fungus in the corn. It killed two of my pigs this year

We are heading back to BCOM. Last two lots of Massey sow nuts have been mouldy and a complete waste as even the chickens wont peck the few that look okay $:-\$
