[QUOTE="terra8186, post: 630358, member: 8649"] I never checked but I was told my mixture was 16%. You asked about total feed. I estimated at the beginning of the year 600 lbs/pig and I used 5400 lbs for 9 pigs. I wish I had concrete for my pigs. I have never had one escape (only 2 years though). I used concrete wire fence and doubled fastened it to a split rail fence. I buried the fence about 6 inches into the ground. They always had food and water so they really never wanted to get out. If you forget to feed them, they will start leaning or tearing the fence down. As far as making the crap in the same area, I fenced off a small partition and they go their to crap. They will go to the bathroom in a corner if you give them one. [/QUOTE]
