[QUOTE="highgrit, post: 1193506, member: 14198"] We've been grinding feed for a few years and this is the first time we've had bloat. I used good hay and added one extra bag of 60% protein mineral to our normal mix of ear corn. We new we had a problem yesterday and called our vet for advice. He said see what they look like today and if their not better he'll come out and treat them. Well most of them are good but a few are still bloated but better today than yesterday. Just wondering if we need to do something or just wait and see. We didn't feed today except for free choice hay. I haven't sent a feed sample off to get tested in 3 years, but we are now. Can to much protein cause bloat? And how much is to much? I figure the boss hogs get about 5lbs. of feed a day. Sorry for writing a book, just looking for answers. [/QUOTE]
