Well, this weekend was exciting. We sold all of the cross bred piglets that we needed to sell. We are keeping two Large Black X Berk gilts and one Mulefoot X Berk gilt. We will breed the two LB gilts to Cletus, our Mulefoot boar and we will breed the Mulefoot gilt to Bubba, our LB boar. We should have some wonderful meat pigs out of these crosses. In the next couple of years, we will look into getting another heritage breed boar. I don't know which breed for sure yet, but, I am thinking about getting a Hereford or Red Wattle boar.
We also had a litter of Catahoula pups born this weekend. Our female, Kitty, has 5 pups out of our red merle male, Lobo. 3 are black and tan, one is blue merle and one looks like she is going to be a patchwork.
