I got a call from a lady off of our "free wild hog removal" sign. She doesn't have wild hogs tho... Instead she has 2 Yorkshires and 2 Hampshires that she can't afford to feed anymore. She said they are 300-400lbs. I plan on going to pick them up... Who doesn't like free meat right? Question is do they clean like a wild hog but with more fat? Any special peeps to make? Or should I just take them to the stock yard and have free money, over free meat?

Man that sounds like an awesome deal!! Either way, some good viddles OR chingos of $$$$!!! I have to laugh though... hopefully that woman is correct on her sizing! We got a phone call Saturday morning from an older gentleman who had trapped " 3- 100 lb hogs and one hog that was staying around the trap." He wanted to know if we'd come get em. We said HAIL YEA!!!, we're down to make a buck!!! Well, we went out there and this is what we found...  Meet Butch! To be Butchered sooner or later... and two more good puppy trainers... all in all 3 Hogs that put together weighed about 160ish. HAHAHA!! Gotta love it! When you going to pick them up??? |

Pickin them up this Friday I'm hoping. She is supposed to send a pic today or tomorrow so I can judge the size for myself lol. I mostly want to make sure we aren't going to get some skinny, sick pigs. Hoping for a quick turn around on 2 of them. The other two will sit for a couple weeks in a pen. But like you said, either way you can't beat that deal.

T-bob, I got that ol Hamp more than likely going to a fellow hunter as a breeder. I'll have to reap a little bit of benefits off that one. I got a new 1700ac place with quite a few hogs on it... Funniest thing tho, it buts up to my back yard fence
