My Granddad had this same model feedmill. Once a week, we had to grind a full tank of feed for his hogs. Then, my Dad started with hogs and that meant 2 tanks of feed per week for both feedlots. We took the feed auger off because we were unloading from grain bins directly into the hammermill opening. Brings back so many memories

Brings back some good memories 👍

This was my job, beginning at 7 year old.. we had hundreds of hogs, we ground feed every two days.. rain snow or shine. I hated it back in the day-

Great great work my friend 🔝🔝🤝🤝

Feed sacks make the best augar sacks to prevent the feed from falling onto for ground

I remember doing that twice a week a long time ago

That old grinders in pretty good shape for its age. I got a newholland 353, newholland grinders are my first pick

I only feed pigs when beef is priced high and corn low

Where do you get your recipes to make your hog feed?

My brother raises hogs for a company and they have feed he buys from them and a chart for how much in each batch.

The tag on the pre-mix bag will give rations of how much corn and soybean meal to add going by the weight of the animal. Bigger pig = less soybean meal and more corn.
