THE OTHERS The Following Test Results were done by Maple Leaf Mills Research Centre under the supervision of R.F. (Rick) Welton, Director of Feed Research. These data indicate that pigs fed Masterfeeds H P Pig Starter pellets performed the best on the Filter Eeze slats The poorest performance was observed in the group of pigs fed on the slotted metal floor.
