Title: KuneKune Pigs Perthshire
Post by: sue manning on May 07, 2016, 11:37:25 am

We are reducing pig numbers due to poor sales in our farm shop over the winter.  Our KuneKune pigs are born and reared in woodlands, so the pigs have plenty of natural browsing.
Litter 1: born on 12/06/15; estimated current weight of 40 kilos each. For Sale: 4 females and one boar. Registered with The British KuneKune Society
Litter 2: born 20/08/15; estimated current weight of 30 kilos each. For Sale: 7 females, 2 boars. Not registered.
Price £75.00 each.
Can deliver within Scotland or Northern England for the cost of the fuel.

Could you possibly let me know the herdbook numbers of your registered litter so I can check their breeding against the rest of our herd?
Thanks

The Sire is cumbwe titaji i 6126, and the dam is yonderton awakino 6550. The litter was notified not registered (sorry got the terminology wrong!), but I'm thinking of registering the boar, and could register any of the females.

Thanks sue.
I was hoping the boar would be unrelated to our current boar, so we could get a new line to cover George's daughters, but unfortunately it wouldn't work as he is 6126, Cumbwe tutaki I! Likewise the gilts wouldn't work as we couldn't use George on them.
Hope you find a good home for them!
I'll ask around to see if anyone else would be interested.

Thanks. We thought George might be involved!
