Yes I agree good choice  :) I will be getting my 4 boys in a couple of weeks time
.I had a couple of pietrains a few years ago, I bought them at 8 months old for £100 thre was a huge amount of meat from them and it was very lean but I think it lacked the flavour of native breed.

I kept a couple of OSB weaners next to a pen of Pietrain cross saddlebacks owned by a friend. Anything with Pietrain blood in it tends to make them look like the Jennifer Lopez of the pig world. Everyone to their own but I prefer my gels to be generous in the underline department.

Regards,
Dave
