Title: Hi from Cheshire
Post by: Randygb on April 11, 2013, 09:01:54 pm

Just like to say hi been watching the site for some time and got my first pigs last year, been keeping Kunekune pigs for sausage and what a good banger they make :) had 300Lb friday last week and sold out in 4 days.

I have just got two new weaners Piétrain cross which i hope will do me some nice joints and chops etc.

We also keep chickens turkeys etc so a bit of a mad house this end  :roflanim:

Some pics of my pigs
