Title: Abattoir Help
Post by: SBE on October 07, 2015, 12:55:10 pm

I'm sorry if this is old news and covered somewhere else but I am having real difficulties finding an abattoir in North East Scotland who will conduct private kills on a couple of outside reared pigs.  My two nearest Turriff and Elgin do not play anymore  :'(

As far as I know Millers in Grantown on Spey and Dingwall still do them.

We used Millers in Grantown ,even though it was quite a trip from Peterhead as they were the only ones doing private kills . You may have to bite the bullet and travel
