Best Sow Feeding Stalls I've Ever Seen
✖ |
"I was tired of wading through mud to feed sows and having them push me around while I tried to get feed into their feeders. I decided there had to be a better way but couldn't find anything on the market. I built my own and they're the best sow feeding stalls I've ever seen," says Brian Mayer, Cutler, Ill.
"They let me feed sows and gilts with-out getting into the pen and the wooden platform in front of them keeps them out of the mud while they're eating. "They're made out of CCA-treated wood in 12-ft. sections, which makes them easy to move. The feed boxes are 18 in. sq. and about 21/2 ft. high. There are 4 by 4-in. runners underneath the feeders and platform. The platform is made out of 2-in. planks."
