I remember the "best of times" too.

Frozen baby pigs in pasture farrowing, coyote attacks on baby pigs, Feed conversion rates that were through the roof, moving pigs in the mud, sows walking over fences in blizzards.

My grandfather paid for his new hog barn in the first year with the savings in feed costs alone.

Yep, the "best of times" for sure.

I think as an animal I would chance standing out in a blizzard than up to the stomach in poop

Mmhmm, yup... But thats just me​

Heck back in the 40's we had barns and farrowing pens. Why would you equate substandard care with the best of times?​

So barns and farrowing stalls were ok for Grandpa, but not for those of us farming today?

I like that Chipotle has found a niche for their business, I don't like the misinformation they put forth though. Did yo notice that they did not have any people involved in the middle portion of the video? That is quite misleading.

I don't consider it controversial, only informational. I have asked that the thread be locked.​

Reminds me of my son in law. Some must turn everything into a debate. Most know what your intentions were, Gritty. Sorry.
