The kids and I have officially made it home from a two-day road trip full of errands, miles, snacks, and one very exciting pickup. 😂🐷
Everyone meet Clyde — our new young registered Berkshire boar and hopefully a really important part of the future of our pork program.
We chose Clyde very intentionally. He comes from old Bonnie heritage lines, and out of the boars we had to choose from, he was the one that really stood out to us for his width, stout build, depth, and overall substance. His breeder told us he should mature more like his sire, and seeing the kind of thick, powerful Berkshire his dad is made us even more excited about what Clyde could become.
Our goal with him is simple: keep building toward the kind of pigs we’re proud to put our name behind — sound, thick, balanced, well-muscled hogs with excellent pork quality first, but with enough structure and eye appeal that select pigs from our litters can also have a future in 4-H and FFA as crossbred show prospects.
We’re especially excited to see what he brings to our girls over the next few years and how he helps shape the look of our herd as we keep selecting for better body, ham, width, growth, and overall quality.
He’s young, he has a lot of growing to do, and this is just the beginning — but we are SO excited to have him here.
Thank you so much Brian Rogers we love our sweet guy already.
WELCOME HOME CLYDE!! 🐷🖤🐖
