Title: PIGS
Post by: Rich/Jan on August 19, 2011, 05:56:14 pm

Hi all - we live in France and primarily keep sheep.  We have recently started keeping pigs - namely Berkshires and Gloucester Old Spots.  Finding it very difficult to find a GOS Boar at Stud from the Patrick line.  Anyone have any ideas.  We are in Poitou Charente (Dept 16) but would travel if needs be.  Have been thinking of AI if a boar doesn't come up soon.
