[QUOTE="bja105, post: 1430522, member: 22557"] I agree on the pigs. We milk one Jersey. She gives 8 gallons a day. The calf gets two gallons. We keep some as needed. 4 pigs get the rest. Its cheap gain for the pigs. We bought the pigs 4/26/17 for$27.50 each. They were about 20 pounds each. They are now around 80 pounds each. In barely over 2 months, they have eaten only 200 pounds of grain, some table scraps, and lots of milk. The pen was an hour of work, 8 hog panels, and some T posts. The cow gets very good pasture and 8 pounds of grain a day. If we don't sell our Jersey heifer, we are considering milking two and scaling up the pig operation. [/QUOTE]
