Success...with pigs

​
We were able to raise three pigs. They were put in pasture at three months and were harvested at nine months of age at over 300 pounds each. No success with chickens which were eliminated by raccoons before laying even one egg. The pigs were moved weekly or more often if it rained. They seemed to love rooting up everything. Growth behind the pigs was noticeably absent of poison ivy, brambles, and other weeds, leaving mostly grass to grow. They were given small amounts of non GMO swine feed morning and evening just thrown on the ground. We will definitely be raising more pigs next year.
