  1. I really feel for you and can't imagine what this has done to you. However, there'll be a big difference between them basically admitting it and them taking 100% responsibility and admitting negligence.... All the very best for the future...

It was a Kune Kune x something mate....dunno for sure....be about 15 months old and at a guess 60kgs....got another 2 to go after this one....won't keep this kind again...too slow growing....want something ready to go at around half that age.... 15 month's is a long wait alright.Did you ever eat suckling pig,nicest thing i've eaten.

  3. I think it would start cooking if the water got above 70 degrees for any length of time....got to keep checking the temperature and cooling it down if need be....and get it scraped as quickly as possible......
  4. Him.... Yeah, he's hanging in a chiller for a few days and my mate will come and cut him up....I will make the sausages and cure some for bacon then I will smoke the cured stuff....

Dunno how old these pups are but they may only be a fortnight old....going at 8 weeks that would take you to November.... November or not I'd be speaking to this guy....and if they were gonna do me I'd be pulling my back teeth out before I missed the chance...might not happen for years.....I'd arrange something.... We

  15. Killed one of our pigs yesterday....just over an hour from start to finish.... He's chillin now.....freezer filled in a few days....
  16. ? Confused ch I think there would be to many variables with all the breeds in there to get the answer to the question you asked. so you could say the same about lurcher to lurcher x's then because thats what the pups would be lurcher to lurcrher from two good parents So, the question I've been wanting to ask for weeks regarding saluki collie whippet wheaten x foxhound deerhound greyhound bull is basically a waste of time.........
