First, the weights that I took on Week 6 were skewed because the scale wasn't balanced, then I couldn't get Spring to get into the weigh pen for the week 7 weighing day. Instead of forcing her to walk in and stress her out, I gave her the week off. Since this upcoming week is Thanksgiving, I will not be weighing the pigs on Friday, but instead I'll be calculating everything on a 2-week schedule. Oh, and it was really rainy, so they're keeping warm all right.
Winter: 135 lbs (up by 14 lbs per week) Spring: ? lbs (up by ? lbs) estimated 155 lbs Summer: 160 lbs (up by 10 lbs) This means that our feed proportions have changed! Winter: 4.05 lbs per feeding or 8.1 lbs per day Spring: 4.65 lbs per feeding or 9.3 lbs per day Summer: 4.8 lbs per feeding or 9.6 lbs per day
