Hello! One of my pullets became a hen on Christmas day! It happened again yesterday. Only 37 more to go! The irony is that I’m laying on the floor watching your video when I should be headed for the processor to pick up my forest raised pig! 😊
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you. Piglets are really growing. I'm glad you are starting to get more eggs. A neighbors dog came over and killed 1 of our best layers. Killed 5 of another neighbors chickens. I pray 2025 will be a great year for all of us. God bless you all.
Hi I have a question when and if you have time. I'd like to get into kune pigs for meat for the farm and family. I keep hearing you need a buddy well I'm looking at a pair bor sow breeding set . I keep getting told they need buddy's so should I get 4 than or how would I make it work with 2 I don't want to get in deep to fast. Thank you for your time
At minimum you should get a boar, a sow and a barrow. All 3 can live together until the sow births; then the sow is with her piglets, and the barrow and boar hang out together. (Or if buying piglets get a boar, a barrow and 2 gilts: gilts will grow up together, later barrow will be companion for the boar/gilt who isn't currently breeding) Since you want them for meat, you will grow out the little castrated barrows and perhaps the gilts too - there should be enough companions for everyone after your first litter🙂 The companion barrow that you originally bought will likely be your first processed pig at around his 18 months of age. Provided everything goes as planned and you have a replacement barrow by then (all girl litters are always possible🤭)

My favorite chicken is the one that lays eggs on the roof!
My heat lamp I use to keep water from freezing keeps me in 3 eggs out of 2 black Austrolorps every 30 hours in winter.
I even like looking at the adult pigs...they're cute, too!
From what I understand kunekune pigs are a better flavor than other pigs. 🙂

Haha sounds delicious
That pig was 360 pounds live weight! I’m guessing not Kune Kune 😳
Merry Christmas and happy new year!
Thank you have a great holiday
@12:06 - extend the roof or a plastic flap to keep the eggs dry?

22 eggs this time of year is real good
I am very happy with it

I'm slightly irritated. I am now getting 2 eggs on a good day.
Do you keep your lard? I heard that kune kune is a good lard pig.
Yes we render it down. Love it
