Hi from Bulgaria
« on: April 15, 2010, 06:40:54 am »
Hi,

    We have been living in Bulgaria for five years now and are gradually putting together a small herd of goats for milking and meat and after keeping pigs for meat only we recently purchased an extremely spotty pig who we have both fallen madly in love with as she is such a character so we are now looking to breed from her in the future.  To my knowledge there are no Gloucester Old spots in this country and she was in the back of a pick up with her litter mates who were all white but she definitely had the personality of the G.O.S pigs.

Thank you for the warm welcome and what a cosmopolitan lot you are!!  I've already found some great info including somewhere to get GOS semen but how I get it here I've yet to work out.  I had a smallholding in Devon years ago and I just wish you guys had been around then.

Whizz Deerpark will post the semen it should only take 2 days max.  You can pay for a next day delivery I think.  I have a friend who always AI's always successfully.  She started as a complete novice around 4 years ago.
