Berkshires

As the Spring of 2019 began thoughts turned to that year's pigs. We always planned to try a number of different breeds and scouring the breed society websites, Facebook pages and livestock for sale forums we found a breeder that had Berkshire weaners available at the right time. So on a sunny April morning we drove down to Derbyshire and picked Gooseberry, Hazel and Iris out from a pen of noisy, active piglets and brought them back to the farm.

They didn't waste much time getting out of the trailer and exploring their new home.
