We have 12 diferent breeds, but just Saddleback and GOS boars, so x-breed many of them.
Crossbreds can be great fun, for instance our middlewhite crossed with our saddleback boars throws what we call "Saddlewhites" - look like saddleback, but with very prick ears and "middlebacks" a lop eared middlewhite!
But apart from the fun, you can get what is called "Hybrid Vigour" - that is the offspring of two purebreds can grow faster than either purebred would, so you get a faster growing, quicker maturing pig.
If you are just doing meat, then no reason not to try some crossbreds - as many of our customers do - you can get some truly individual pigs - each looking unique!
