Title: pigs delivery dates
Post by: Rich/Jan on December 16, 2011, 04:25:08 pm

Hi - have all your pigs delivered on time?  One of mine is due on 29 December - first timer - Berkshire.  The 29th is worked out on the 3months 3weeks 3 days calculation.  They look huge and very uncomfortable and have just been brought into their indoor quarters.  Sods law they will either be late or early but I just wondered what your averages are?  Jan and Rich.

Mine are usually up to 2 days before or after the due date....or right on the date.

I did have one that was 10 days early once, and one 6 days late.

Good luck and let us know how you get on.   :)
