[QUOTE="Hogfarmer10, post: 1847248, member: 41451"] Perfectly fine to feed hogs milk. Start slow and build up the amount of milk. A lot depends on what kind of grain you’re using. Definitely would stop the milk at least 90 days before slaughter. Unless the breed you’ve selected is a smaller breed, why do you want to kill at such a small weight? I never kill one less than 425. But I raise large frame hogs. You won’t get that from ipp, kune kune or even Hereford. Usually they’re still growing rapidly at 200 lbs and the meat will be leaner. After about 260, they’ll slow down in growth but start putting fat on. [/QUOTE]
