Are you like us color is the 1st thing and then go from there. If you want some thing easy on the land get a hertiage hog like red waddle. If you want a hog that has large beacon get ladrace or yorkshire. If you want something with muscle duroc. But whatever you go with you need to know if they are a stress carrier or not. We dont go with anything white on the ears because they sunburn bad down here in the summer in with a muddy wallow. But its up to our son when we look at piglits. Then it down to how good of a mom she is when we are in the pen. Talk to others because reasons are going to very. Word of caution about heratige pigs they are slow growers. Come visit me, The Homestead.

Our livestock sponsor drove us his feed to feed out his barrow because he did not want any show feed in him. Which was great because we did not have to purchase the feed. If you can see if both parents are stress negative and that will help too. Type of hog plays a roll in it too. Come visit me, The Homestead.

Hey, since you said that the meat was realy grainy his hogs were on show feed and ate now corn. We found out that when we had our son's show pig on nothing but show feed and when we got the meat back. NEVER AGAIN, we went to feeding our own way and the meat is a lot better.

Thanks for the welcome. We have dairy goats but just got them about 10 months ago so we haven't gotten any milk yet. We will probably breed them this fall because they will be over a year old by then. I can't wait! Come visit me, R L Farm.
