I've got a pedigree OSB boar down in Devon for stud. Not sure where you are or whether you want a boar for keeps or hire.
Don't hesitate to email me

Where are you from.  We have a pedigree registered boar available for hire in March.  We are in Cornwall.

Or at the other end of the country we've got one in South East Scotland.
OSB semen is available now, but AI can be unreliable with a gilt.
