Love them Val

What weight do you reckon they are now ?
It's just so I can compare to pure Kunekune at the same age

they look like a curly tamworth on your pic - very cute I like them.

Well....weight wise if I wanted to eat thewm they would be off now, so possibly about 80kgs....will try and find my weigh tape! What I like is they seem fairly long, good hams on them and short legs....which is good!
Having had KKs and also knowing the mothers of these pigs I'd say they were same size/height as them but a much better shape!

Val, if you're not going to eat them what are you going to do with them.

Breed weaners from them!.......unrelated mothers! Also genes are so far removed with KK and Manga its worth a go. If its not good idea once we have a litter will try a x with a Berkshire. Want small pigs that mature at a reasonable rate and don't eat too much in the way of hard feed, taste good and not too much fat.
