Feed Purina Sow Chow r of Course. Yes, Purina Sow Chow has been builtthrough many years of careful nutritional studies on over 5,000 litters of pigs at Purina's Research Farm. Purina Sow Chow has everything your sow needs to help her develop, farrow and nurse big litters of husky pigs and maintain her own body weight at the same time. Authorities estimate that 20% to 33% of all pig embryos conceived are resorbed by the sow early in the gestation period, if she is fed a poorly balanced ration. So hogmen who neglect the ration they give their sows, lose lots of pigs they never even see! That’s why it pays to feed a proved ration like Purina Sow Chow.
