Yup, your missing dealing with a person with any intelligence

I would just decline his offer to allow you to haul his swine. Put the problem back on him as they are his pigs and obviously he is closer to them than you are.

 

[tncattle]

Are you kidding me? Can't this moron find someone closer to haul two d__n pigs?!

Two potbellied pigs? Can't he just stick them in crates and put them in the back of a pick up? Or can't he just find someone to give them to? I mean, you can't eat 'em. What good's a pig you can't eat?

 

[Lammie]

I am reminded of Lonesome Dove here. "We Don't Rent Pigs" Or haul them for that matter.

I dont know much about pigs, but heck cant you make sausage out of them little rascals?

There is no reason why you cannot eat them. We had a problem with people turning them loose when they got too big to care for. When they would get into peoples gardens, they would call my uncle and he would catch them, feed them corn for two weeks, and then smoke them. Tasty and the perfect size for a family get together.

 

[Lammie]

Search me, I didn't think they'd be fit to eat, except maybe for sausage.

Gotta be something wrong with people who keep pigs in their house .

Since they're house pets tell him to just go get them himself and just throw them in the back seat of his car and they can go"wee wee wee all the way home". :lol: :lol:

reckon we stole the thread. knew a lady who drove 2 pigs in cage from new orleans.
About 90 miles to home, I was waiting to help her at her place. She drives up in
a minivan, the pigs in a cage on the backseat, she drives up and has 2 things
hanging out of her nose, the smell was so bad she used female things to plug her nose. :shock:

I was going to tell some dumb story about a middle school boy on the team bus, but........forget it.......

I used to haul them in the back of a Pinto station wagon. No big deal!

When I was stationed in Korea in the 60's seen several hogs hauled on the back of a bicycle.
They would get the hog so drunk it couldnt stand up and strap it on the back of a bike and to the market they would go.

Cal

Wonder if that would work for the guys trying to catch the wild cattle?

Don't know if it would work or not ,but prolly make the job a lot less stressful.
