Litters
We will have approximately 50 fall litters born from late July through the first of October.
We believe that great show pigs begin with great sows. As you study our upcoming litters, you will notice that many of our females were either winners themselves,littermates to winning barrows, or daughters of successful sows. We only keep the best gilts and every female has to prove themselves as producers to be retained in the herd. We spend countless hours trying to match each sow with the boar that we feel will produce the best litter whether they be a new boar or a proven boar. Pictures of sows and gilts are included when possible.
NOTE: Projected litter DOB (Date Of Birth) are shown in red while actual farrow dates are shown in black.
