I have an unregistered gos sow, she is in pig, due in august to her 2nd litter, she is very docile, friendly and will roll over for a belly rub at just a mention!!! Havent got round to advertising her yet, but contact me if you are interested.  We are near Chelmsford in Essex, not sure how far that is from you?

Don't know if you've seen this.
Carol is on South side of York so not too far from you.

She writes:

We have a GOS sow that is approx 2 years old, she has had 2 litters with previous owner but due to losing our jobs we need to find her a new home.

We did not get any paperwork with her so we can't sell her as registered.

Please email me if interested lorac_uk@yahoo.com

thanks

Carol

Hi,

 I have a GOS sow, she is 9 months old and is not registered. She has not had any litters yet, was keeping her to breed from but we are having to downsize due to a change in circumstances, let me know if you are interested.
We are in Pickering,North Yorkshire. You are welcome to come see her
