The purebred Tamworth two are sisters Eek and Squeek really enjoy each others company so the milk bar consists of 19 Large Black Bob / Tamworth Eek and squeek piglets which will furnish the store in beautiful pork
Large Blacks are also in a...
School meals and hospital food now join the ever growing list of beef meals secretly containing horsemeat low % upto 100% - also horsemeat in France contaminated with bute
Here we have 12 Blackworths from last night and 7 Blackworths from Friday night
A few Large Black piglets with the 2 mums - 14 piglets all together in this pen
A little note from beloved read 12 piglets at 3am

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup
I'm just in from the barn making a pot of tea (bloody Brits)
9 piglets here tonight and so pleased your two seem to be ok - yeh triplets we are going through the same crap with the sheep on that one
Thats it - I am going to work on you Southern - when I mention pigs in the future I want to hear you pur like a kitten and lap up the piglet pics
You could do the same with me and goats :lau
Anyway its 9 so far tonight with no casualties - I was on duty last night and beloved is doing the work...
Last night Tamworth one had 7 piglets and tonight Tamworth two is at one piglet at the minute she looks huge so I'm guessing 9 piglets
Pics in a day or two when all together as a big family. Our two Large Black sows went last week and have 14 piglets between the two mums in one pen
Thanks Liz ended up with 7 beauties + two dead + one dead runt
Tamworth no 2 goes tonight or in the morning
op - you mention big pig 2 was taken by boar - you mean he did the business
yes let them roam together - easier life for you ;)
Get some electric fence up for your pigs and all will be good. I would just get two feeder pigs to start with and see how that goes. They may well root up your 3 acres
Pigs with goats - cant see that being a prob - Goats with pigs :hu ask the goat experts - there's enough of em on here :lau
