Hi All,

My name is Jimmy Galloway and new to breeding pigs, I live in Ireland and have 13 Wild Boar, I am hoping I can pick up some tips from the more experienced breeders.

Cheers.

Hello from herts,

I look forward to reading some wild boar stories. I imagine they are quite tricky to look after

Hi and welcome to the forum from Ceredigion! It all sounds very interesting.... I have a friend who keeps wild boar and crosses them with gloucester old spot  and sells the meat, its fab! He does say they are tricky to keep and I have heard many a funny tail told (see what I did there? :roflanim:). All the best with em and be prepared for us asking loads of Q's on the subject :D
the most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, loving concern.

Hello from 'across the water'  :wave:
Been keeping/breeding pigs for 10 years (not had wild boar even though the piglets are SUPER cute!) but we're having a winter off this year... Ask away and if I can help, I will  :)
