It depends on how big they are now. If they're just weanlings, I'd start with 2 to 4 scoops in the morning and again in the evening for the two. Feed them together - they'll compete for food and eat better. Feed them all they'll eat without making a huge pile of food in their pen. Increase as necessary and let them eat all they will. In a way, you're right to concentrate on the commercial feed because you'll get the fastest growth. On the other hand, it's pretty costly and if you feed them leftovers and whatever other "free" food you can get, they'll still grow but not so quickly.

If you raise pigs on a regular basis, I'd suggest a "pig nipple" waterer. It sue is nice knowing they have water all the time.

Your local FFA might be willing to give you some advice. My best resource when we started raising pigs was a friend who had raised pigs in school with FFA and the other best resource was the guy at the feed store.

And give them beer once in a while.

Good luck with your pigs!

they are aprox 4 months old. and can i ask what the beer does?? i can see where it may make their day a little happier. lol. thanks for the advice

The beer pretty much just makes them happy. They'll love you for it. They like Gatorade, too.

I saw after I posted that they were 4 months, so you'll probably need more than a couple of scoops each, twice a day. Basically just make sure they eat as much as they can without leaving great heaping gobs of feed around.

At 4 months, you must be getting close to slaughter weight. We tried to slaughter between 225 and 250, live weight.
