Lining it up!

Breeding brother to sister to line up both sides of the pedigree and to try and pull out sone of the best traits and characteristics from this line.

These two are very promising in our herd but both still need some refining.

These two are litter mates to the last video I did of 7-2 Cadet Jr.

Take care & Keep charging

We couldn't be happier with the quality, growth and performance of these hogs. We will continue this sow line building out our meat quality production side of our herd.

Enjoy!

One of the smoothest old line boars I’ve seen in a while.

Cadet 7-2 is a product of WLLH Cadet x DAD Kali

I still think he’s a more complete boar than his brother but as Wade said ‘They both have parts and pieces’ to improve our old line herd.

I moved his brother to the barn to get him on the dummy to collect him.

Really excited about the litters on the ground from these two Cadet Jr boars.

So happy to hear!

May 27, 2022, was the day I brought home 3 pigs, knowing nothing about pig farming. Our goal was simple: raise them outdoors with electric fencing. We started small, with just a few pigs a year.

Fast forward 4 years, and we've had our fair share of failures. People question our methods, and sometimes I wonder if they're right. But the proof is in the pudding - our customers love the meat, and I know it's because of the way we raise our animals.

We're planning to upgrade our setup over the next few months to accommodate an outdoor farrowing system and new breeding stock.

A huge shout out to our mentor, Paul Harper from Woodland Ridge Farm & Learning Center. Also thanks to Davis American Duroc and Hendricks Durocs for the work they are doing to produce high quality hogs.

Once upon a time, the United States had 10s of thousands of small scale independent purebred hog breeders.
What we lost in genetic diversity and knowledge was due to the corporatization of the hog industry.
A very small percentage of breeders made it through those times. Some adapted to the change while others stuck to their guns no matter the consequences!

A fellow breeder said recently that we are not in a fight against each other, we are in a fight against the consolidation of the hog industry. For every hog we raise and sell as cuts, tops, or breedstock is a win for the small scale producer.
I am here today to encourage others to consider being a small scale independent breeder so that we can rebuild the American 🇺🇸 hog industry.
Everything we do does matter.
It’s my pleasure to help others along the and to encourage more and more people in their desire to farm/breed hogs.
This is not a light task. So I ask you to consider making the hog business great again.

The Old Penny Line.
Registered Old Line Duroc
DNA Banked

It’s hard for me to pass up old line durocs that are excellent mothers and have decent feet even if I don’t particularly like their type and kind.

The Penny line was one of those. At the time it really was all I had to work with (long story) so I gave it a shot.

I started this line by using a double bred Ironman boar I named Heretic onto a Fudge Clean Lady 21-9 gilt out of HlF Rambo.

That made the 14 litter. I kept two 14 litter sisters and bred them to Mojo. From that litter I got the 2 litter. There was one gilt, Penny 2-6, that I was very fond of in that litter so I bred her back to Mojo. That was when things started ticking.

Today I have 3 of those double bred Mojo x Penny in the Old Line American 🇺🇸 Duroc breeding loop. All 3 are bred to DAD Cadet Jr 7-1.
These gilts look a lot like the Pearls so I am blending the two lines and renaming them Gypsy Girl.

I feel very confident that the Gypsy Girls will be our old line foundation herd.

I’m happy with them and how excellent they are at mothering as I build more structure and soundness into the line.

Next week I’m taking 2 of the double bred Pennys to the butcher and will report on their meat quality and production!
