Unfortunately, Cranberry passed away last night at 11:40 PM. It had gotten cold the night before, and mommy crushed her trying too hard to keep her warm. We found her at 7:30 in the morning, barely able to breathe. We tried, but we just could not get her to recover. Unhappy.
This is a sad but true comic. I still make pancakes from a 1950 First edition (second printing) Betty Crocker cookbook (No Bisquick!)

My picture might not be good, sorry. She is a really deep red. I don't see much much maple coloring in her. I do appreciate the tie-in, it's quite fall like.
Considering her birth color, I am/was trying to go for that deep red color. But honestly I did not consider either pumpkin or nutmeg (to orange for my brain I think). I am/was trying to make her name mostly a red fall name. Maybe Oak ( as in red oak leaf). However the two choices stick in my head.
I gotta admit, the 'Bourbon Red' name tells me of the insides of those oak wine barrels they use - and that looks like her color (now). But Cranberry seems likes such a good girls name.
The thread title says it all. I am looking for a American Guinea Hog Boar. No crosses please. Young (even months old) is good. I'm in SE Knox county Ohio. I've got three nice little sows (very young) that if I do not find a boar for, I will likely butcher.

Close enough to Turkey Day. We bought the mom exposed, and got surprised a little early. If you vote 'Other' tell me what would be a fun name! (Registered Boer BTW)
