Average daily gain and feed disappearance were 5% greater with wet\/dry feeders than with dry.  The effect of wet\/dry feeders on growth was only evident during the final 8 wk of the trial, while feed disappearance tended to be higher throughout.  Carcasses of pigs fed from dry feeders yielded a higher lean percentage than did those of pigs fed from wet\/dry feeders.  Single and multiple space feeders did not differ in gain or feed disappearance at any point during the trial.  Feed efficiency did not differ among feeder classes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twelve commercial feeders were evaluated in 4 pens of 12 pigs each during the 12-wk growing\/finishing period.
