I don't know how you guys do it. My one little piggy is a handful.

Do you have any idea what kind of genetics you're working with?

Most of the pork leaving our farm today walks up the loading shoot weighing around 300# each. One would be almost more trouble than what it is worth.

She's a commercial pig with a long body. She's white in color. And has a LOT less hair than the ferals we've been shooting. Other than that, I don't know a particular type. She weighed about 12 lbs when I got her, and she's up to 35 in the month I've had her. I'm not going to let her get much more than 100-125 lbs since that's about as large as I can deal with here at the house. Any larger and I'd have to skin her instead of scald and scrape her.

But free was free, and one bag of corn plus scraps from 3 neighbors makes for fairly cheap feed. I do grind the corn and make her hot water corn cakes that she loves.

On the positive side, I move her cage around the yard and she's wiping out grubs in the yard and leaving well plowed and fertilized little garden plots. ;)
