Tiana's pig purchase!

We wanted to add some different genetics to our small swine herd and Tiana wanted to get into the 'ownership' role with her barrow money from last year. We were able to buy two crossbred gilts from the Rozeboom Family from Roberts, Wisconsin. The gilts are out of a purebred Hampshire sow and a cross boar who is a son of Alien Nation from Lean Value called Alien Nation 12-2 who is housed at North Iowa Boar Stud. They really look like breeding pieces for making barrows and T is super excited to show some belted "oreo" pigs as she calls them. Thanks Kyle!!
