It's alot when the going rate was .45 cents per pound and that was with out vacuum sealing which they charged more for of course. Most of weren't booked around here at all. They all said just to call and they would get them in the next day. They just aren't taking them near us for one which i guess that what frustrated me was that they had been taking them and told me i didn't need an appointment which is why I called to began with and was expecting to get told baised off what you said in the past the first time i called to ask was i believe in like December or January and was told that(i didn't need an appointment) and then called again in April to get them booked/appointment for this month and was told again just to call and they would process next day. Our areas are different to the extreme which is funny considering there are alot of cattle ranch, sheep, goats around us not so much pigs but they are there just not as big operations that i have seen. Maybe everyone over here been going there. Most if not all the butcher shops have shut down their processing unless its for their own animals that they saling in the store.

anyways the pigs are settled in the goats are have flipped stalls so i can milk panda morning and evening now. Her kids go in the first stall instead of the inner stall. They aren't thrilled with being seperate oh well. They go in the Pasture, mama stays in the pen. Yay goats yelling lol. The calf is a pain she likes to chase the other pigs so she in the stall with mama goat to prevent unwanted behavior with the pigs until i get rid of miss prissy or build a yard in the field for them which ever comes first. I was told the male was 8months old and the oldest is 1yr old i tend to think thats not right but what ever. Either way i got the breed i wanted no pedigree so could be mutts but who knows. He said the 1yr old might be bred but will see. Personally I be surprised if they are 5 months old but kunekune grow slower i know but they get about the same height as a potbelly i thought the anyways what do i know they are starters anyways. But I need to get facial pictures of them. Gonna go check on them here in a minute then i be in the rest of the night. Need to catch up oin laundry, dishes and pretty much everything. It's been a long week. I temporally fixed the chicken coop( some two side panels fell off due to weather and age) still needs more work but it keeps them dry and safe from hail so whatever there. Fixed miss priss (remain female pig of unknown breed) house and set up a temporay shelter for the kune kunes. Got hay in and new bedding in the goat and calf house. We have gosling hatching. Under mama goose. Life on a farm lol. Oh and the kune kunes have waffles or atleast some of them do lol.
