Yeah thats the plan, grow in it for 6m then let the pigs clear it up again. I just need to decide what veg will work in the space then move when I have the pigs to suit. I definitely want it to be productive inbetween pigs.

Well the 2025 pigs have gone. Took them in Monday and collected the produce yesterday. Didnt go for chops this time wanted mainly sausage and bacon. 24 joints 60lb Sausage 40lb bacon joints, currently curing These have much less fat on them than previous ones. Could be the breed (Brittish sadle back X Pietrain) or could be that we managed feed better, or a combination of both. Now I need a plan for the pig pen in-between. Going to grow veg in there, just need to decide what.

Have a look for the original 'produce your own' thread. Think it got moved into fowl and feather talk for some reason. It had been going on a while, some good reading from all posters in there pal.

Surf and Turf pal. It wasn't planned, when I picked the steak up the king prawns were on the reduced pile

Poached duck eggs for lunch earlier simple with a bit of S&P

Looks decent that pal, I'd be happy with that meat Did you just get em as spring lambs this year and grow on for a few months? We have had 3 duck eggs in 3 days now and today one of the hens decided to lay a golf ball

That will be a couple freezers filled for you pal

Not been on for a while lads, change of phone lost log in etc. Now got the app so see how we go. Not much changed other than animals growing on. Turkey making good weight. Ducks ARE a pain in the arse as expected. This pig cross (Pietrain/Saddleback) is slower growing than previous breeds. But today we got our first ever duck egg at Meadowview cottage which was a nice surprise. Interested to hear what others have been up to......

Well done pal, itching to get back into it myself, miss my ferrets. 16 dogs seems excessive though?

Quality that pal, mine always come back with loads more fat than that. What breed was this one?

Going to move the hens into the bird run then where they are becomes a polytunel and I'm about done with the building side. Bit of work to do on the watering system aswell in the next couple months. Pretty much there now.
