Free Pig Feed - Save BIG Money On Feeding Pastured Pigs

[@bryansloesshillshomestead4523]

I feed my pigs totally free. I have never have bought feed for them. I get beans and bean meal that truck drivers dump on the shoulder of the road by the AG Processing Plant that my wife and son works at. They empty their hoppers along the road after leaving the plant from unloading. They have beans and meal that gets hung up in the hoppers of the trailer. I have several videos of free feed runs. I also pick up corn or beans that farmers spill during harvest.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Nice. Great way to keep your costs down.

[@rosehebrewable]

Can pigs eat raw beans?

[@ekoorbhtebazile]

@@rosehebrewable they will. My brother fed his pigs some old bananas and they liked them.

[@thomasreto2997]

Great tips on pig farming and feed acquisition. I work for a cold storage company (of course I am not going to disclose them) but you are correct in that there is a sickening amount of food waste in this country. Why not turn that into an asset for everyone. I love watching your videos. Wife and I have acquired some tropical rainforest acreage and looking into breeds....of course, I see us getting only about 2 or 3 pigs...probably Idaho pasture pigs, kune kune, or American genea hogs. I am thinking about developing this into a fruit and nut orchard and using the pigs to keep the area clean as well as meat. We are also thinking about doing vacation rentals in cabins in back of the property as well.🌈😃🤙

I was AMAZED at the amount they throw out. Congrats on the new land. Sounds like an exciting adventure and interesting location to raise pigs in. keep us posted on how it goes. Thanks for watching.

I used to work for a guy who got outdated bread from a bakery. Tons of free feed, literally and some goodies once in a while, too... Hundreds of outdated Entemann's chocolate covered donuts for example. A few times they had some dough to throw out and the pigs sure loved that raised but uncooked dough.

From my knowledge that would be a wild hog.most likely boar from the size of the dewclaws he is a big boy. Looking to service the gal in the pin. One or some are coming into heat. My gramps use to wait till he saw these sights and he would go out with the dogs and round him up. Hobble the boar walk him back to spend time with the Sows. After he got acquainted with each one .He would put him in a different pin get him good and likkered up cut him and feed him out for another 3 months thin it was ham and bacon time for him. He sold all of the piglets when it came time. And waited for the next boar to come by.

[@macanoe5335]

That is so smart!!!

[@myco_enthusiast]

Another potential free or low cost option is to ask for spent grain if you have a brewery nearby. From all I've read (aspiring homesteader here, studying and biding time before making the leap), pigs 75lbs and bigger could eat about 50% of their diet in spent brewery grain. Depending on the brewery, they have a LOT of grain that has to get thrown out after they use it for their needs. Not a bad way to supplement feed! Also, dogs love it baked with peanut butter as treats, too. It could even be dried and ground into flour for human consumption too.

[@tcook564]

Those gilts are awesome looking. Looks like a big buck track

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Thank you. Agree. I think it’s a deer. Appreciate y’all watching

[@ZeljkoSerdar]

9:12 Buck. Front tracks are noticeably larger. Front tracks also sink in deeper and splay more due to the heavier front end on a mature buck. At first glance, most hunters would call it a running track, but if you look close the edges are sharply cut, there is no sliding of the hoof, and no debris thrown forward of the track. This is a walking track.

My stepdad fed his pigs from mainly grocery store garbage( old or bruised veggies fruits and orange juice puree. He would litterally get a pickup truck load 3 times a week for free. So i guess he basically fed his pigs for all but free. He would get a 55 gallon drum full of grain once a month. That was it for 3 sows and a boar and all the pigglets. Bread stores is another good way to feed up your pigs too. P.S. always soak your grain. But don't add fruit juice to the grain especially in the summer. You will have soused sows. Yep, they will get pickled. Lol. Ask me how i know! Lmao

[@nellsinnock867]

I wouldn't even bother mentioning this except that the feed is out in the weather (I am assuming), but rubber tires have alot of toxins in the rubber and water leaches those toxins out and into whatever is in contact with the tire. You are absolutely right about how perfect they are as feeders, especially the way that you have the 3 of them mounted on that wooden structure, so it pains me to tell you about the nasties that they contain. This info is free and unsolicited, so feel free to heed or ignore it. Thank you so much for sharing farm life and activities with all of us!! Please have a wonderful and blessed new year!!!!!

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Appreciate the feedback. The feed doesn't sit in the tires for very long at all. We don't stockpile feed in them. They eat it as quickly as we put it in. Point being they get enough parasite exposure rooting in the ground, we try to cut down on that by not feeding them in the dirt.

[@tillmanfamilyfarm7759]

Chuck, this is getting closed to the way we would raise our pigs for our own consumption. They got everything!! Grass clippings, fish guts, all left overs. We had a small deep freezer that we would bag up left overs and clean out the fridge. In the freezer it went. It would feed the pigs for a couple of weeks at least. We also would pick up out of date produce at the local IGA. Milk, bread, veggies. All free!! I haven’t done any of that with these. Wasn’t sure if that might be breaking the rules🤪

[@SheratonParkFarms]

So my understanding is that as long as it isn't animal products (waste beef, pork, chicken, etc) you can feed it to them. Animal based waste food has to be heated and there are a bunch of regulations surrounding their use. In NC you have to have a permit to even feed it to them. All of our stuff is strictly vegetable/fruit products. GA may be different, not sure.

[@tillmanfamilyfarm7759]

Good to know! I didn’t have any intention of feeding any thing that was a meat bi product. That is good to know though. We can get old produce that is being thrown out. Thanks!

[@andrewhart5920]

Where we live you are not allowed to use food waste unless you cook it at a certain temp for so long. By having to do that it cost less to just buy regular feed. Such a waste but that’s gov for ya you can use it for your own pig you plan to eat but can’t sell it to someone else from my understanding.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

From what I understand we can't feed any type of animal based waste food. Like leftover chicken, pork or beef. To do that you have to have a permit, it has to be cooked to a certain temperature for a specific length of time. We only feed vegetable, plant, fruit based. Good point.

Salsa? I've heard you can't feed tomatoes to pigs. Plants or fruit

[@randalb1386]

Frozen pizza, eggs and soy nuggets. I don’t guess that passes for pasture raised pork at market.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Frozen pizza? Lord I wouldn’t eat that myself🤣🤣. Thanks for watching.

[@randalb1386]

Had a guy I knew that raised basic feeder pigs. He had a local buffet separate leftover food and food trays scraps and he picked it up daily. Kept the pigs happy and the buffet made money from something they were throwing away. Win, win

[@olivermosby286]

I thought the whole point of pasturing pigs was not to give them GMO soy nuggets........and those tracks are from pigs....

[@SheratonParkFarms]

The nuggets are organic. Thanks for watching.

I brake my unusable eggs and feed back to my hens smashed up and mixed with their crumbles . Watch feeding to much filler feed like fruit and vegetables they are great energy but not good for weight gain . I wouldn't feed it it a big waste of time . Its is a great thing to use to reduce cost becouse a animal will eat way more then what they need to grow and be healthy . It's a must use product but watch how much you feed .
