Pearl and piglets update!!


Just wanted to post a quick update of Pearl and the feeder/fair piglets.  My David sent me a picture of Pearl having a snack.  She is looking great and is getting along with everyone really well out there in Montana. I can't wait to visit her!

I started weaning off piglets from the momma's.  They are getting too big and starting to make the momma's lose weight.  So I pulled 13 of them off and put them in their own pen on just the feed mix for a few weeks till people start to come pick them out and take them home.  The smallest in the pen is about 25lbs.  The largest is almost 40 already and they are not even two months old yet!  

Our Berkshire x Tamworth fair piglets

Pulling the big ones off of the mothers allows the little ones that are left much more milk to eat.  I have already seen a huge difference in how they look already as the smallest one is already starting to catch back up with the others in size and weight!
