We just got back yesterday from a week in Maine, visiting family. While we were there, I drove up to Bangor to visit with Katie Carter of Bandirose Cavies. I brought home three incredible boars and a fabulous sow. Bandirose pigs are awesome, and I am just thrilled to be adding these pigs to my lines.
The new pigs are Mullraney: a DEW senior boar. He is going in with my younger cream sows.
Mackinnon, a self red satin carrier. Mac is a Sweet Wheekers pig, about 2 1/2 years old and still eager to get with the ladies. I pulled my lovely satin broken boar who hasn't produced a thing for me ever and replaced him with Mackinnon, who was in piggy heaven with three sows.
The last boar is a Golden Agouti and Red roan boar with just about everything going for him, big shoulders, lovely coat, cute little nose. He is in with the Bandirose sow, Rosario, a DEW. According to Katie, the last time she bred this pair, she did get a cream so I am hoping to reproduce her results.
