"The Osborne Big Wheel feeders require minimal adjustment and are easier to manage than our conventional stainless steel feeders. We love them. We have had no problems getting the pigs started and have seen a reduction of starve-outs and reduced mortality rates. We have observed that when given a choice, the pigs actually prefer the Big Wheel feeder over others."Copyright © 2009 Osborne Industries; All Rights Reserved
