Title: Pigs and chickens
Post by: Nickit7676 on June 14, 2020, 10:47:28 am

Hi - yeah, we’re not really smallholders - 4 chickens and 2 pigs doesn’t feel like farming?

We’ve 2 oxford and sandy black gilts. One is 18 weeks and one is 14 weeks. Looking for some joints, sausage and bacon.

Our hens are a pair of buff marams and   a pair of speckledy hens. Marams laying now for 6 weeks and speckledy 1 laid her first egg yesterday. Speckledy two, her comb isn’t as red yet and theres still a little fluff in here feathers.

3 dogs, 2 rabbits, 2 g pigs and 2 children. None of these are worth farming as they don’t contribute.
