LADIES thank you so much for the absolute best KuneKune video ever. I wish I could thank you each individually. I’ve watched this multiple times and learned something every single time. Plus you are all so gracious in your “roles”.
How do i know if its a thinner or thicker liquid? Dewormer, Tetanus, Parvo/Lepto/Erysipelas? What size needle would you recommend for 4month old? Thank you!
I really like this injector. Seems to handle the wiggling they do. No one wants a pig jetting with the needle dangling from their neck. 🙋♀️ Or snapping off in the skin because you're trying to keep the needle in. Good to know about leaving the needle in a bit too. I have lard pigs, similarly structured to Kunes, and I experienced some fluid coming out when giving VBcomplex injections. Wasn't nice.
My vet's method was to restrain the pig while injecting. And of course the pig went mad, it was terrible. I got a slapshot and they hardly notice. Thank you so much for this video.
How much does a Kunekune cont in UK compared to NZ? There are a couple of big ones I pass each day on my way to work which are very popular, often I see people stopping to feed them or take pictures.
Is there a reason that the tusks are not clipped in the boar at birth??? Especially if, like this lady who was looking for a gilt and a companion pig, what is the purpose of the tusks since being in a situation where fighting for whatever reason was necessary back in time, it's not now and docile or not, they can cause serious damage if a scuffle broke out. You have an awesome video, extremely informative as well as interesting to watch and I hope the ringing in your ears from that little black spotted boar didn't last long. Thank you for taking the time to help others learn the standards of this breed.
Hi Deby, they don't have their tusks at birth. The tusks are for fighting when they become adult boars. Castrated boars are very docile BUT, the tusks are still produced and sharp! Their tusks are actually teeth that grow longer and self sharpen. You can't actually start to trim them until they are over two years as they are still only just developing then. To remove the teeth would affect their grazing ability. Hope that helps.
Pigs do not need that, they do not get sick, humans are the problem doing test that never work, when fails, because these idiots create a virus that can not stop, they have to kill the pigs, wrong, kill all these idiots forever.
You have lovely white teeth ,perfect nose good figure in other words you are a Wow Kunekune lady No Jowels What are your feet like and are your toes close together ? Do you lose your coat if so i get you a new one. ,Big Hug Paul D. Can i kiss you ?.& Nice legs WOW.
Thank you so much for this incredibly helpful education video, I am very happy with that. On the other hand, I am sad, then in Slovakia doesn´t exist Kunekune breed, even not society.
While it's heartening that these standards were developed recognizing the diversity of the breed and with a goal of preserving health and the unique merits of the breed, ultimately this kind of breed standard judges by appearance, not performance. I hope the kunekune will not be another breed of animals to be destroyed and turned into unhealthy abominations by breeders selecting to conform to a list of arbitrary aesthetic standards rather than for health, efficiency, behavior, and other performance characteristics. This breed was clearly not developed for show, but to be a practical animal. Preserving and enhancing the merits of the breed should be the priority.
