Tamworth weaners ready from 20th August - Central Scotland
« on: August 12, 2011, 09:39:14 am »
Hi all

We have two litters of Tamworth weaners available from the 20th August at 8 weeks old (born June 23rd and July 4th). Males and females.

Chubby little things that are eating solids and growing well. Friendly and electric fence trained. They will be wormed prior to collection.

Let them clear and fertilise a patch of ground and then enjoy the most fantastic 'proper' pork in six months time.  :yum:

Viewings welcome. We're having problems with our new phones and transferring over our numbers - do try and reach us on 07960-199660 (David) or 07729-347297 (Gillian) but if you can't get through just send me a PM

Thanks for reading.

Hi
We have had weaners in April slaughtered in Autumn before, they had a homemade wooden hut.
What housing would weaners need that were going to live through winter?

Hi Katog

All pigs need is somewhere dry and warm that they can't destroy. Whatever you built before will probably be fine, just keep it topped up with lots of straw when it's particularly cold.

Our pigs all live in home made arks with metal roofs and floors on skids. I know of someone in Orkney who keeps his pigs in shacks made of old pallets nailed together which does just fine.

We have five Tamworth weaners left from the first litter and ready for their new homes from this weekend at 8 weeks old (wormed).

There will be a second littler of eight available in two weeks time.

See our other add for OSB weaners

Nearly all sold!

Three Tamworth males left and there will not be any more available until January 2012.

We also have three OSB males left. Five more OSB males ready in two weeks and several litters of male and female OSB's ready at the beginning of October (some have already been reserved).

If interested in any of the above you can now reach us on our phones (what a palaver that was!  ::)) 07960-199660 and 07729-347297
