Title: Tamworths
Post by: mistryer on May 08, 2012, 12:19:27 pm

Any of my French neighbours know where I could get tammie weaners in SW France? Plenty of other breeds on offer, just can't find any of these  ???

Hi there

Spotted your post on Pigs in France - we are in SW France and have reserved Tam weaners from a lady in Department 36 - she may have some left. Pm her on PIF she is "Cathy". :wave:

Tamworths are so popular at the moment, I have had enquiries from Norway, Germany and Lithuania in the last few weeks and requests for export to Holland and Belgium this week.

Wow that's amazing! I fancy trying some, as I know they are good routers, and we've  bits of unloved, brackeny areas of land I would like them to play in for me. They look cute too, of course :-)
