Milly is a nice round sow with good feet/legs, a great top line, nice head/jowls, a wide, rounded rump and a calm, motherly personality. She definitely takes after her mama, Maegan!
We have paired Milly with our ginger colored Tonganui boar, Hickory. Both parents are double wattled and complement each other well. This litter has great bone structure, great heads, perfectly placed and well attached wattles, and are growing fast!

Tapeka/Mahia Love X BH Tutaki/Kereopa
Expected Jan 2021
COI: 5.2%

Hilda is a beautiful "high white," soundly built Tapeka sow with the curly hair trait and a steady, faster growth rate. We chose to pair her with Tex this time, as their characteristics balance each other well. We're anticipating sound and round piglets with double wattles! A splash of color would be great, too!

BH Rebecca Gina/Andrew X Whakanui/Tapeka
Expected April 6, 2021
COI: 4.1%

​Paprika is an excellent mother! She carries her pregnancies so well you can barely tell she is pregnant. When it's time for farrowing, she is a stealth birthing machine, and has her babies with no one around, in a smart location.  She talks to her babies like she's done it her whole life, is slow to lie down and makes sure piglets are out of the way, and the milk bar is well stocked. All 12 teats are fully functional and she makes ample milk. ​ We're super pleased with her and expect her pairing with Popcorn to be phenomenal, with a low COI and complementary physical characteristics.
