HELP!!!! ADVICE NEEDED
« on: October 26, 2012, 07:09:32 pm »
We have a gilt who is 8 months old and 2 weaners at nearly 5 months old.  One of the weaners is showing a huge interest in the older lady! Question 1, is she old enough to come on heat? Question 2 is he old enough to do the job successfully????

I would say yes to both, both is possible, so just in case and to be on the safe side, I would split them up.
