Tamworth weaners wanted in June or thereabouts Biggar
« on: January 15, 2013, 09:57:21 am »
Hi


I know it is a bit early but we are looking for anyone who could supply us with 2 or possibly three Tamworth weaners in or around June.  They need not be registered but we are looking for pure Tamworths to raise for the freezer.


Trying early this year as we usually leave it too late and have in the past had to settle for other breeds :-[ .


We are near Biggar and happy to travel a reasonable distance.  If you think you might be able to help us this year please let me know. :fc:


thanks
Pauline

We got ours from a lady in Wooler just over the border - can't recall her name but Tamworths are her thing - she advertises in the back of Country Smallholding mag a lot - she's google-able I think.
