Pigs and mud (again)
« on: January 30, 2016, 11:02:35 am »
Just been told by a "kindly" neighbour that I should not be keeping pigs if I cannot keep them out of the mud, well hey ho, was informed that that they  can get grass disease, that's a new one on me but I am open to peoples thoughts on how they can get it when there`s no grass only mud, or if indeed it exists. ??? ???

Glasser's Disease?  Respiratory disease of which there are 15 kinds?  Not caused by mud, though.

Thanks MF, I presume that's what they meant, must have read a book because they don`t keep animals.
