HOW CAN / HELP MY SOWS FARROW BIG UTTERS?
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.
Stop in and see us today about either Purina Sow Chow Complete or Purina Sow Chow*
Concentrate to mix with your grain.
