Title: Kune Kunes - Must Go This Week
Post by: AlexInLincs on December 07, 2011, 12:53:37 pm
We're sadly having to sell our Kune Kune's due to complaint by a number of the local residents (my wife can't cope with people moaning!) about the noise.

We have the following available:

1 x Black/Brown Sow - nearly 2 had first litter in summer. Registered with BKKPS

1 x Black/White Gilt - nearly 2.  Possibly infertile as living with proven boar and never had a litter. BKKPS Reg

1 x Black/White Proven Boar - nearly 2.  Sired first litter in summer.  Big, gentle lad!  BKKPS Reg
 
1 x black/white gilt - 8 months. BKKPS reg.  Probably in pig thanks to our frisky boar!

1x brown gilt - 8 months BKKPS reg

4 Piglet Boars (1 ginger, 1 white and 2 black and brown) 

16 weeks old Can be registered with BKKPS if required. All currently entire, can be castrated for additional fee.  Ready now.

Any sensible offers considered.

 Didn't realise Kune Kunes were that noisy. What sort of noise do they make? Do they do it al the time, or does something set them off, like it being feed time? :pig:

My Kunes give no more than soft grunts, as though talking to one another. But when I appear carrying a bucket they let rip but for no more time than it takes to chuck a bit of grub their way.

Hi

Totally agree that food is a fantastic silencer for them, but sadly them going crazy when we appear has become a bit of a sore point with the neighbours and it is stressing my wife.

Would your neighbours be more sympathtic if they were introduced to them and could see their charm for themselves? :-\
