Heritage Swine
We offer live piglets from unique bloodlines with strong genetics.
Currently we have heritage mix pigs available.
Our pigs are raised outdoors on pasture with access to fresh forage. They are rotated regularly and given an herbal supplement to prevent parasites.
If you're looking for feeder pigs with good grazing instincts or for brood stock that can farrow outdoors with minimal shelter all year, please consider our stock.
Below is a description of our current breeding hogs:
Heritage Mix Hogs
Our aim is to develop strong grazing instincts, a diverse pallet, medium fattiness, medium size, friendly personalities and ability to farrow outdoors in the winter.
We started with two different mix breed sows and a mix breed boar. All three of them good grazers with good breeding characteristics. We saved two of the best gilts from each of the sows and selected a new boar to pair them with in order to further adapt the genetics.
Norman: Breeding boar Berkshire, Mangalitsa and Old Spot Good length, back and belly lines Very friendly and energetic
Maxine: Breeding sow 50/50 Large Black Hog x Mangalitsa. Great structure, good grazer, doesn't root. Looks like LBH but with the hair of a mangalitsa
