Berkshire Weaners for sale. Sire and Dam both registered pedigree. Born 31st July so available as 8 week old Weaners around 24th Sept.
Berkshires are easy going, placid, and ideal as a smallholder or first timer pig. They are slightly smaller than most traditional breeds, sometimes known as the "ladies pig"
Berkshire pork is sought after and considered a delicacy in Japan
£50 each (a small additional charge if you require them birth registered)
All pigs will be wormed at time of collection.
They are running outside and are used to electric fence.

I don't believe Berkshires are any smaller than other traditional breeds at all. There are certainly plenty of sows out there that equal other traditional breeds. They are usually sent to slaughter at smaller weights than some other breeds. Agree they are generally easy going and placid! :thumbsup:
