Title: Bath time!
Post by: SophieLeeds on October 31, 2014, 12:21:46 pm

Hi all,

Looking at some photo's on the computer last night and came across a few of people washing their pigs with some kind of soap. I wondered if anyone can recommend anything that I can buy off the internet?

I wash ours with just water and a stiff brush but they are large whites and being outdoors I never seem to get the last little bits. Looking to show a new pedigree boar next year so I'd like to get him used to the routine :)

P.S. - I don't mean pig oil etc
