Title: Wanted Large Black Boar
Post by: kazno10 on September 17, 2015, 04:00:17 pm

Looking for a Registered Large Black Boar for sale or hire. Based in Perthshire but willing to travel a reasonable distance. Have a pure bred sow and would like to breed pure bred piglets.

Try contacting mowhaugh on here or HappyHippy. Mowhaugh has Large Blacks and HH used to.

Good luck with the LB breeding.

Sorry, I've just seen this.  No adult boars just now, but young boys who are ready to come to a new home now, and could be used in a few months.

I am in the Scottish Borders (Mowhaugh Farm, TD5 8PY, closest village Yetholm, closest town Kelso).  I have boys about 11, 13 and 15 weeks, would need to check exact dates with my husband.  They are all currently birth notified, but would be registered as required (BPA charge for registration, so we only register those that purchasers wish, or any we breed from ourselves, not those just going for meat.)  Cost for a registered boy would be between £120 and £140, depending on age.
