Our lamauncha doe had twins and we bought 4 weaner pigs. Last round we only kept half of one pig and it's disappearing fast. We may have to keep a whole one this time.

Spring has sprung on your farm, Nice. I took a friend over to my pigman and we picked him up two piglets for his family on Sunday and I picked out eight for my homestead. Getting the pigpen ready is Sundays mission for me. I also like the the spotted piglets white only get boring to look at.

Awesome to see other peoples animals! Your goats for milk or meat? Couple of my sheep are due in early july (I was late getting my Ram) and Im still deciding weather to get some weanling pigs this year. My last ones took forever to grow and don't get me started on keeping them fenced in. Is that fencing all you use to keep them in as adults as well?

The female will get milked when the kids get weaned, but the rest are destined to a life of clearing blackberries and learning to pack my camping gear into camp and maybe some meat back to the truck if I'm lucky. As for the fence, that's all I used on the last batch, but it only went to where the dogleg is near where they are standing and it filled up with a sloppy mess. The add on for this batch though, I've had to add a couple of boards along the bottom to stop them from digging under. No escapes yet though lol

Go Ducks!
