I found 2 Hereford boars 4 1/2 months old on Craigslist. We went and got them today. I have long admired Hereford Hogs and am delighted to find these! As usual, I have no hog pen ready and won’t be putting them in the pasture we sprigged with Bermuda and Bahia. So I guess we better get busy! @misfitmorgan

We went to Como to pick them up and made new friends. The couple that sold them has registered Herefords, ours are 3/4 Hereford. What nice people! It was like meeting a sister I didn’t know I had! I called @Devonviolet on our way home. Would have loved to stop and visited with them, but in the pouring rain, we just wanted to get home.

We stopped at Tractor Supply and three people stopped to admire the pigs! They are beautiful.

Herefords are my favorite pig to look at. Love the color pattern.

Congratulations! I loved dreading your last pig journey.

Now, what is the plan for these pigs? Breeding? Meat? Have you gone through the meat from the last pigs?
Thanks! I love Herefords and have always wanted some, but they are few and far between around here. I was glad to find these.
These are feeder pigs for meat. The last two pigs we had, we sold half a pig and gave away half a pig, put one in the freezer.

Our 3 year old grand daughter named the pigs, Piper and Poodle. :lol: Piper is one of her favorite words. It’s a joke word, she pairs it up with random words and laughs. Of course we play the game and laugh too. She’ll blurt out Piper potato and we say No! Not Piper potato! Then we giggle. The game goes on, Piper Papaw, Piper Mamaw, Piper tree, Piper car and anything else that enters her mind. So now it’s Piper Pig. Poodle? Have no idea.
