View ProductsFeeding Sows in Breeding
Fresh feed, every time. All the time.
The MealMeter was developed by an intuitive producer who was frustrated by wasted feed and limited feed intake in the breeding area of his sow farm. This sow feeding device is instrumental in increasing feed consumption with every sow at this critical time in her reproductive cycle while at the same time greatly reducing feed waste. In areas that are either labor intensive or full of feed and water waste, the MealMeter takes the human element out of feeding and meets the demands of each sow’s varied eating times.
Farrowing Crate
Every detail of the PigEasy Farrowing Crate has been developed for maximum worker convenience and ample sow comfort while working seamlessly with the PigEasy MealMeter System.
The industry-leading AI Saddle (AI Plus) is the easy and effective approach to the artificial insemination process. The sleek and indestructible design holds the bottles or bags in place to be completely emptied and also puts pressure on the sow allowing technicians a hands-free method to breeding multiple sows at one time.
Pig ID Cart
The PigEasy ID Cart is a simple and effective tool for quickly and uniformly tagging and tattooing pigs. Typically a time-consuming and fatigue-inducing chore, the PigEasy ID Cart eliminates stress on your hands and back with two foot pedal operated taggers. This allows the operator to use both hands to hold the pig for a more consistent and easy application of each tag or tattoo.
Chuck-It Bucket
The Chuck-It Bucket is a holding/disposal tank for daily removal of pig mortalities and afterbirth in sow farms. This stainless steel tank is specifically designed to adapt effortlessly to any skid loader or loader bucket for complete and easy emptying into an off-site dumpster or compost site.

“The PigEasy products are innovative and have provided practical solutions to some management challenges on our farm. The products are well constructed and work the way they were described.”
Matt Grimm
Cactus Family Farms
The PipePik works well because it’s easy to handle and is very efficient compared to how we previously cleaned feed tubes. You can clean lots of tubes in a short amount of time.
Janet Maggart
Tosh Pork-Herrondale
We are a return customer for the Chuck-It Bucket. The large capacity makes the handling of afterbirth and dead piglets a lot easier and much more Bio-secure.
We use the MealMeter in lactation with the feed hopper and like that the sow can eat at her own pleasure and don’t feel rushed when eating compared to regular hand feeding. We’re really pleased with the system.
