First Wean 519 pig starter feed is designed for pigs weighing at least 25 lbs. First Wean 519 pig starter feed can also be fed as an receiving feed for newly purchased young showpigs, as well as a “prep” feed for young prospective sale pigs. It is critical to medicate pigs when first purchased especially when buying from multiple breeders. The health of the pig is paramount. A healthy pig will be more feed efficient and have a much better appearance. Feed Intake Young pigs from 40 to 100 lbs will eat about 5% of their bodyweight per day. Gut fill is the primary determining factor in voluntary intake prior to about 100 lbs. Once hormonal changes occur at about 100 lbs, energy (calorie) density becomes the determining factor. Feed intake expressed as a percent of bodyweight past 100 lbs is not a viable measure.

Power to Perform®

Purina® Honor® Show Chow® pig feeds are designed to help propel you into the winner’s circle. These feeds contain technologies to help support healthy, well doing pigs.

Growth performance is important, but visual appearance is critical. Nutrients such as energy (calories), essential amino acids, essential fatty acids, minerals, vitamins, and more must work synergistically for the pig to look it’s best.

Purina® Honor® Show Chow® pig feeds are designed to unlock the genetic potential in which you have invested. Purina® Honor® Show Chow® pig feeds deliver the right nutrition to fuel your success. Each feed has a purpose with the show ring in mind.

Research and InnovationEach product is backed by the Purina® Research Farm in Gray Summit, Missouri. PMI Nutrition® Feed Additives are included to help support healthy digestive and immune systems.

Ambitine® Technology helps support the gut environment for optimal intakes and performance. Patented and proprietary medium chained fatty acids are important to hair and skin quality, and immune function.

TASCO® helps the pig deal with stress. High Octane® Alleviate® Technology supports a healthy gastric system.

Feed with ConfidenceThe Purina® Honor® Show Chow® pig feeds are designed for pigs destined for the show ring. Each product has a purpose.

Complete Nursery ProgramThe First Wean™ pig starter program maps the route for a great start. Designed with the health, performance, and appearance of the pig in mind, the First Wean™ starter program is palatable and has the Power to Perform®.

Getting pigs off to the right start is paramount to their ultimate performance in the show ring. First Wean™ 219 pre-starter is an extremely complex and palatable feed that bridges the gap between liquid sow’s milk to a solid diet. First Wean™ 319 pig starter feed is a Phase 2 complex starter that keeps the young showpig developing and headed in the right direction.

First Wean™ 519 pig starter feed is designed for pigs weighing at least 25 lbs. First Wean™ 519 pig starter feed can also be fed as an receiving feed for newly purchased young showpigs, as well as a “prep” feed for young prospective sale pigs. It is critical to medicate pigs when first purchased especially when buying from multiple breeders.

The health of the pig is paramount. A healthy pig will be more feed efficient and have a much better appearance.

Feed IntakeYoung pigs from 40 to 100 lbs will eat about 5% of their bodyweight per day. Gut fill is the primary determining factor in voluntary intake prior to about 100 lbs.

Once hormonal changes occur at about 100 lbs, energy (calorie) density becomes the determining factor. Feed intake expressed as a percent of bodyweight past 100 lbs is not a viable measure. Below is a table for suggested daily feeding rates for the Purina® Honor® Show Chow® pig feeds:

Pig Weight Product Amount/Day

40-100 lbs Muscle & Fill™ 719 2.0 to 5.0 lbs

100-150 lbs Muscle & Cover™ 819 5.0 to 5.5 lbs

150-200 lbs Muscle & Cover™ 819 5.5 to 6.0 lbs

200-250 lbs Magic Bullet® 919 6.0 to 6.5 lbs

250 lbs and up Magic Bullet® 919 6.5 to 7.0 lbs

We suggest hand feeding by dividing the total daily amount into two equal meals per day fed about 11 to 12 hours apart. Be consistent feeding the same time every morning and same time every evening.

Benefits of hand feeding:

1. Less total feed needed

2. Control over growth and appearance
