Measured the two boys yesterday and both are 80kg and ready to go. We are hoping to bring them next Wens, aim is to get pork, sausages and 3 hams for christmas. Question is would the hams freeze ok or is there alternative to freezing the hams for christmas that works better this far out .

o and thanks to everyone for the advice when starting out, even though well used to farm animals these as first pigs have been a treat to keep and wife is already planning two more for next year

We got ours down early December last year and our butcher gave us everything back frozen. We took out the hams xmas eve morning and cooked them xmas day. It was lovely. I would see no problem freezing your hams until xmas

We have just had a half one done into bacon, hams and gammon steaks and ours have gone into the freezer. we froze it last year aswell and it was great

Yup, as everyone else says no problem with freezing it.
It's probably better if you can get the butcher to blast freeze everything instead of you freezing it down yourself, the blast freeze preserves everything far better IMHO

Hi, what breed were they please? (researching in preparation for our first pigs).


Thanks
