I also manage several 2,400 head wean to finish barns so I understand what you go through. These barns are research barns so I track feed consumption daily and can keep records of feed left and consumed on a daily basis. But for you it would be helpful to know how much your pigs at a given age/weight are consumping daily and multiply that by number of head you have and number of days so you can order enough to get through weekend and holidays. Out of feed events are proven to reduce gain on pigs by 2-3%.
