Our pigs are born outdoors and fed on non-GM rations with lots of fruit and
veg - they live outside all their lives in family groups free to root,
wallow and grow at their own pace.

Our latest litter was born on 7th November - they're all strong little
piglets -and we'll have both breeding and meat weaners available around the
first week of January 2009. All will be birth notified and breeding stock will be registered as pedigree.

Please PM us if you'd like further info - or to come and visit the little critters!!

I don't mind answering - our meat weaners are �45 at 9 weeks, breeding stock is �60 upwards at the same age.

Make that buy two Hammer Man. Pigs are very social animals and you shouldn't really keep one on its own. If you are interested in pig keeping there is a good introductory article by Nick on here somewhere.

Thanks, I had no idea. It wouldn't be for a long while yet though so I've plenty of time to read up and ask questions. I'll go and look for that article and leave this thread alone now! Sorry to have hijacked your advert!
