[QUOTE="terra8186, post: 630175, member: 8649"] Here is my pig report from last year. Sorry about the formatting. I know I overpaid for the pigs, but there is a story behind that. I had a 20x20 foot pen for 6 and last year I went 30X30 for 9. My recommendation to you is purchase or build an automatic feeder. Pigs like to step in their food making a mess and spill the rest of it. We dont have concrete yet. It would be nice, but concrete for a couple pigs each year is a pig expense. 2008 Pig Report Holding Time of Pigs Bought 9 pigs on April 16, 2007 – Each pig weighed about 37 lbs pd $50/pig 1 July 3rd – Total of 78 days 2 August 1st - Total of 107 Days 6 August 13th – Total of 120 Days PreSeason Estimate Feed Estimate 9 pigs is 600 lbs/pig @ $0.15/lb = $90/pig + $50/pig + $20/pig profit or pig roast = $160/pig Total Feed bill -- $90*9 = $810 Grain Feed Purchase and Feed Rates Date #’s #’s Left Days of Feed Cons.
