« on: August 15, 2012, 09:59:59 am »
we have a litter of pedigree Hampshire weaners for sale   11 in total all the males are castrated and there are 4 females that would be registered if you want them for breeding (all 4 have perfect bands and have an even underline) these will be ready for Xmas as long as you don't aspire to having them survive on grass
we also have a Hampshire sow with her litter of 13  piglets they are only 4 days old so not checked them fully yet for underlines Mary has been winning firsts at yorkshire last year and hatfield also the Scottish shows   she got second at yorkshire this year in the sow class   very easy to handle and show  we have a young gilt coming on that is why she is for sale :farmer:

We have three Hampshire gilts for Robert and they have been really easy to keep - healthy and very docile indeed.

Born 1st January, they go to slaughter next Tuesday; our vet had two castrates from the same litter and they went a couple of weeks ago; killed out at 60kg+ deadweight with a nice covering of fat.

Nice pigs.
