    Yes if you have good grass Barley/maize/soyahull in equal measure if selling min 2kgs/head/day could push to 3/day. These will convert feed well also they will flesh out and start to go up a grade over 4-6 weeks. On good grass and meal they could put on 1.5kgs/day you will get over a kg easy. Also makes them easier to gather.
