Good for you - you'll get your land worked, get some fab pork and bacon AND your son will learn loads about where his food comes from  :thumbsup:

Don't wrestle with pigs, they will love it and you will just get all muddy.

Let go of who you are and become who you are meant to be.

Hello and welcome from a cold and blustery Somerset.  :wave:


The pig - keeping guidance on TAS is really good. Well worth reading. Also the early diary posts when Dan and Rosemary were first starting out with pigs.    I found them essential reading for the first time pig keeper!  :pig: :pig:
