Smart looking animals in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rabid 1,936 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 I reckon they have a very similar head to the Tamworth, in shape not colour obv. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Similar heads anyway i thought.narrow head,long snout.tamworth is a really old breed aint they.thats why they x them.to keep the look but to quiet them down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chaff 3,414 Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 Strange heard that the only way to save a rare breed is to eat one Quote Link to post Share on other sites
