These pigs are for 4H. I am most excited for the Duroc piglets!

Do you know what breed you worked with?
New Hampshire and Yorkshire . I had one exceptional bore that I raised . His name was Unexpected Bill because I didn't know I was getting him 😍 Duroc are good pigs also. Some folks don't realize how you can get attached to pigs. All of mine were tame and like to be scratched on back . I would cross the Hamps and Yorks to get what we called blue butts a good meat hog , then sell the babies as feeders . Good luck with your piglets .

They are not really my piglets.

Aww! I wish we could keep them. Unfortunately, most are auctioned off. My 4H project also has a blue-butt gilt, but my favorite are Durocs. Just plainly because of their fast growth and looks.
