haha He is huge!! I really want a huge pig. Can I have him, you think? heheheRoll farms said:All I'm seeing is the biggest.pile.of.bacon.ever.
Just kidding. Nice lookin' boy!
just back from the pigs and Bob has been in the wallow - Nice looking if you like a giant muddy pig (should have had camara - very hot here but Isaac is on his way to dump rain hopefully)Stubbornhillfarm said:Bob's a nice looking pig! He seems quite happy to have worked off some wine for you.
No! No! No! You don't ever want to eat a Large Black boar. Yes he can make good bacon with the sow but Large Black boars have taint (or all the ones I have known do). Royd hasn't shared what Bob smells like when a sow is in heat. That lovely froth from their mouths stinks - Phewwee!All I'm seeing is the biggest.pile.of.bacon.ever.
Sounds like quite a way to attract the ladies!Cornish Heritage said:No! No! No! You don't ever want to eat a Large Black boar.

Thankfully they don't smell all the time - just when they are trying to impress

I really want to see these pics...but all I see are URLs. Anyone else experience this? What do I need to do to fix it?Royd Wood said:I'm back home to my Large Black and Tamworth ladies after a vacation at another farm where they make beautiful wine and they have some Birkshire girls which I get to play with.
My owner - yes him with the white shirt on gets paid in boxes of wine while I have fun doing what a boar does best.
He weighed me today to check my condition and says that I am a very healthy big boy weighing in at 727 lb
Those pinky / old spot crosses are 250 lbs and out of here soon but they look tiny when next to me.
Its nice to be back home and rumour has it I'm going to be a busy Bob
