Title: Must find good homes for all our pigs
Post by: melandharry on July 03, 2009, 09:30:26 am

We have taken the very sad decision to sell all our pigs, so we are looking for homes for all of them. 

We have a proven 3yr old GOS boar, 3 proven breeding sows (1 Tamworth; 2 Saddleback Tamworth x), plenty of 6 month old piglets (GOS Saddleback X, and Sanglier Saddleback X), and 7 adults ready to go to abattoir (all min 75kgs in weight).  We are based in central Brittany.  We really need to find good homes.  Please mail melanie.gray@orange.fr for further details if you are interested.

Just as a matter of interest, why did you decide to sell? Unfortunately, i'm in Ireland so it would be logistically impossible for us to import them.

regards,

Morgan

I have had to take work back in London so can no longer look after them....
