Looking to donate one or two of our Pure Bred Meishan piglets to a couple 4H kids in our community, Logan County or surrounding counties. If you, or anyone you know have a child in 4H that would love to learn about this wonderful breed. Please reach out soon. They were born in December, but are a little slower growing than standard commercial breeds making them a great candidate for upcoming fairs in July or August this year!
Some quick history on the Meishan breed; they are an ancient Chinese breed whose history spans over 5,000 years. Also known for extreme prolificacy and fat, flavorful meat, and are extremely docile. Meishans were imported to the US in 1989 for research. Here is a link to more information below about Meishans.
