She has shot it a couple of times. I really think she will end up being a better shot. Much more patient.

Oh no my pens going to be raised and out of wood. I bartered with the guy who raises hogs to give me some and keep them probably this year or until my pens built I give him a ton of feed a week but generally its more like 2 tons per week because I cant give it all to my cows :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: Hes happy im happy no rush to build it and no headache if they get out for me.
Eating pigs, go Berk x Duroc or pure Berk. Whole different experience. Showing wise, get what you like to look at and remember it costs as much or more to feed a crappy animal as it does to feed quality. We raise both and the girls like showing the dark OPB's so that's what we show. Eating wise I'm going to Berk in my crosses due to the quality they add to the meat.

Wasting a lot of feed buddy.....cut back and feed them half as much twice a day. I know you got plenty of time for feeding. :mrgreen:
