Heritage Breed Piglets - FALL Litters - 2018
WE ARE TAKING REQUESTS FOR FALL PIGLETS NOW, please contact us with any questions or to get your name on the list. We absolutely LOVE our repeat customers and offer a discount of $25.00 per piglet as a small way to show our appreciation.
Our piglets are farrowed in a natural environment without the use of farrowing crates. Co-nursing is always encouraged once the piglets are four days old, besides it literally takes a village to raise these adorable piglets. We watch our sows and piglets very closely and weaning can take place anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks. The better start the piglets have with their mother, the faster they will grow out; it's a win - win situation.
We are a farrow to finish farm and sell only a few select piglets to outside farms. Yet, it is our want, need, desire to raise an awareness around us that pasture hogs not only survive, they thrive! Put these hogs to work for you on your farm, clearing blackberries, digging up poison oak, tilling the new garden spot, preparing your field for re-seeding. The possibilities are endless and we are here to lend support!

Registered Hereford x Registered Large Black = Rita Hayworth
Litter Born: September 5, 2018 $150.00 for barrows or gilts - AVAILABLE! Oh Rita, what can I say.....you always need to be 'in pig' or you are one moody girl! This time we took you on a date with Sir Goliath, our amazing sweet Large Black Hog. Unfortunately, with the size and weight of Goliath, you were only bred one day. I am expecting a small litter so we will most likely keep them all to grow out. Update: this was NO small litter, 15 born - goodness! Some of these will be for sale, contact us for more information. |
Large Black/Hampshire x Registered Hereford = Mags
Litter Due: September 25, 2018 $150.00 for barrows or gilts - AVAILABLE! YES, we loved the Hereford x Large Black cross that we decided to give Maggie May, aka "Mags" a "go" with Winning Touch, our amazing Hereford boar from Shaffer's Goldrush. Our customers are requesting this cross as the Hereford is putting larger hams on the Large Blacks. We are loving cross! |

Large Black/Hampshire x Registered Hereford = Sweet Pea
Litter Born: EARLY 2019 $150.00 for barrows or gilts- RESERVED for repeat customer, thank you Noah! We were thrilled with Sweet Pea's 2018 litter, that we will give her and Winner another date night! The last cross grew super-fast, very stocky, with nice big hams that tasted great! |
Registered Berkshire x Registered Hereford = Thelma
Litter Born: EARLY 2019 $150.00 for barrows or gilts - RESERVED for repeat customer, thank you Shelly! We could not have been happier with this cross. I know I have said it before, but this is another favorite cross of mine! The hybrid vigor that we get when crossing these unrelated breeds is truly remarkable! They are fantastic grazers and built like a brick house. This cross will be a "keeper" on this farm for years to come! BRING ON THE "BERKFORD'S"! |

Registered Tamworth x Registered Hereford = Princess
Litter Born: September 30, 2018 $150.00 for barrows or gilts Have you ever had that certain sow that will do anything and everything to be breed? Yep, us too. Meet Princess, the sow who was going to be bred to Sir Goliath, but instead tore off the wooden gate and raped my poor Hereford boar. He will never be the same.... |
Registered Large Black x Registered Large Black = Ellie May
Litter Born: Early 2019 I have to face the facts. Sir Goliath is not losing the weight needed to continue breeding. Ellie May will be having a date night for early 2019 piglets. We will be keeping the nicest boar out of the litter. Donating two gilts to the Livestock Conservancy for their British Pig Project and growing the remainder out to sell. I pray that I can weight off of my 'kissey-face' boar because he truly is one in a million. I am not sure what I would do if I couldn't breed him anymore. |

Registered Large Black x Registered Hereford = Roxy
Litter Due: October 27, 2018 $150.00 for barrows or gilts Some may call is "over-kill", we call it pasture raised with love! Another fantastic cross for us as the Herefords and the Large Blacks are the BACKBONE to our farm! |
Registered Hereford x Registered Hereford = Betty Davis
Litter Due: January 6, 2019 $150.00 for barrows , RESERVED FOR REPEAT CUSTOMER, thank you Jim! $350.00 for registered gilts or boarlings Another great success will happen from Betty Davis and Winning Touch! These two can 'tango' anytime if they continue making this nice of bacon seeds! |
