    How much would you pay for a feeder pig

    We charge $1.25 per lb. So, depending on how much they weighed would depend on how much they cost! We class 40- 200lbs feeders.15-40 weiners, and 200-300 finished, depending on the breed of the pigs, they all have different finishing times and weights!
