Pedigree Tamworth gilt for sale
« on: July 22, 2011, 11:24:38 pm »
edit this post Thanks to a cancellation, I have an April-born Tamworth gilt for sale. Registered pedigree. Out of one of my sows which was the mother of the current Tamworth Champion of Champions.

Very friendly, as the litter has been well socialised with people and dogs since birth. Please email me for more details, pix, etc. 07846 449023

I'm 20 mins from the Second Severn Crossing and about two hours from the Midlands.

Hi Michele. She's a Jacqueline and the sire was a Royal Standard. Unfortunately, she's a half sister to Hamlet.
I think Dirty Dennis may be on the way down south - the couple are very interested, and he's a good match for their two existing gilts, but they're buying in two others soon, so I'm waiting to find out the pedigree names to check ancestry for them. If all is well, they'll take him straight from the Hatfield House Show in August. He's a really lovely boar, with a cracking temperament as well as great conformation.
Hope you're coming to the show this year. Not too late to enter (well, strictly speaking, the closing date was last Friday, but they're flexible).
