Title: Two Berkshire sows for sale
Post by: becstar57 on August 30, 2010, 12:09:19 pm
Hi there.  I am reluctantly selling my two 3 year old Berkshire sows due to financial problems.  They both live together and happily farrow together.  They recently had 19 healthy piglets between them (June this year) which have all now been sold as weaners to grow on for pork. They must go before mid September.  If not, it's sausage time for them which I really don't want to do as they are exellent breeding sows and wonderful mothers. :-[  They are not registered but the meat their piglets turn out is exquisite, so they would be ideal for someone looking to produce excellent quality pork rather than selling registered weaners.  We are open to offers regarding price - no time-wasters please (ideally we would like to re-home them together).  If you are interested, please call Becky on 01562 710111 or 07585 141197 any time.  :pig:

I have seen these pigs and their litters that they had recently, the piglets were all good and strong and their mums were well handled and happy pigs too  :pig:
