Title: Wanted piglets/ weaners Aberdeenshire
Post by: neephasher on November 21, 2011, 08:37:21 pm

Hi,
I am looking for 3-6 pigs between 8 and 30 kg to fatten, prefer coloured pigs of any breed. Within 50 miles of Aberdeen ideally.
Need quite soon as will be part of school visits to farm next month.

John

Hi John,

Tried to PM you but it didn't seem to work.

We breed Tamworth pigs near the Forth Road bridge in Fife. At the minute, we have 8 pglets at eight weeks old and 4 at 12 weeks old. All electric fence trained and wormed. A mixture of Gilts and Boars intact.

A bit further than 50 miles, as you requested but I am not opposed to delivering them, if you cover the fuel costs. We are looking for £50/8 week old piglet and £60/12 weeks old.

If this is of interest to you, please contact me on 07500047401.

Kind regards,

Ronnie Dalrymple.
