Title: Young OSB Boar
Post by: BillyBerridge on October 05, 2009, 09:46:56 pm

I have a soon to be registered pedigree OSB Boar available in around 4 months time, I have 2 Alistair boars I have bred at the moment they are both weaners. My dilema is that, I would like to keep 1 of the boars for brood stock.. but the problem is there both so bloody good I dont know which one to keep so I've decided to grow them both on for a few months whilst I make my mind up.

1 of them is dark rust with some small black dappleing but mostly rust.

The other is a light rust/dark sandy (Ginger) With much bigger black markings.

They both have cracking shapes, stunning heads,perfect snouts and the classic white socks,blaze and tassle.

Would anyone be interested in putting their name down on the one I dont keep?

I'm wont be getting rid of one because its no good, quite the opposite they are both looking good enough to be potential show quality.

I should'nt complain really!

I wish I could have a pound for every time I was asked that! ;-)

Sorry no registered Gilts at the moment and I dont think there will be any available until next year, I can stick you on the list if you like though?

Cheers
