Show Pig Offering...
We are very excited about this year's crop of show pigs. Thanks to the purchase of a couple of bred females we were able to wean off two litters. We have had some traffic and have sold all of the barrows but have several gilts available. The pigs are sired by Hot Shot a cross boar with a tremendous amount of power out of a pure Yorkshire sow and Ice Age who is a massive York boar times a belted sow. The boars are housed at Genetic Edge in Ohio and click on the boar's name to see a photo. The remaining pigs are first come first serve so feel free to call or e-mail me.
Other news
We did have some misfortune with our Cain bred boar learning that he looked like a sound breeder but in the end he must have had semen quality issues and was unable to sire any pigs so we ended up culling him from the herd. We do have a replacement herdboar who I call "Spuds" as he is a blue butt with gray over one eye. Look for show pigs next spring and a photo later this spring.
We are also in the process of breeding our york gilts for summer litters. The belted sow we farrowed in February was bred to a Hamp boar from North Iowa Boar Stud, Thanks Bill.
Take care everyone and good luck getting pigs.
