We have recently placed a deposit on a Red Wattle boar piglet!!! If you find yourself asking "what in the world is a Red Wattle?", here is a link so that you can learn about the breed:

We chose this breed because it is known for foraging ability and good meat quality. It also is more heavily muscled than either the Large Black or Mulefoot and a leaner pig than the other two breeds. I believe that the three breeds will compliment each other well. I feel that he is a logical next step in our goal to produce the finest pastured pig possible.
Stay tuned for photos of our new potential herd sire. He will be here in early to mid February 2011.
