Excellent point about catching the back legs! I was accused of mistreating pigs by carrying them that way, so I complied with the other person's idea. The pig squealed unholy he✓✓ , and the other person decided that I SHOULD carry by the back legs! Great video, great content, great bacon seeds! 👍👍🤣🤣
Appreciate the quality content! Found your channel through the podcast 8 months ago and watched every video of yours after my first born arrived. We all down with the stomach bug now so this upload came at a good time!
Great job guys!! .. and absolutely another spectacular beautiful shooting filming footage compilation documentary countryside content video and a big fat thanks from Montreal QC ..
I loved this. It showed more of what you look for to place in a fall-back pen. I feel like other videos just show you grabbing the smallest ones and nothing else.
I’ve spent a fair amount of time around pigs, helped castrate, treat build pins all back in the 80s and hated every minute of it but you guys make it look easy. I know it’s not but I would say you know what you’re doing 👍 keep the videos coming! And the blogs to really enjoy those!!
Nice and informative video. I grew up around cows and horses but not much experience with pigs (other than the wild, feral pigs on our farm which are a major pain in the butt). Nice to learn a little something about the culling process for pigs.
Not to sound harsh; but the ones with physical deformities were used for cooking. (NOT sick ones) All of them were, of course, but we called those earlier than we would the others.
My dad was a hog lot farm hand and tried really hard to bring the deformed fall backs up to speed, and he said they rarely bounced back. I guess if the choice is a long, prolonged death or a fast end, give them the fast end.
What helped y’all find so much success with your channel? I have 400+ farming videos and around 9,000 subs. How did y’all get to 200,000 subs with around the same amount of videos?
Need more info. Looks 99 percent yorkshire. What weight are feeder pigs coming in? Have you considered other breeds (to increase marbling) . When I was a kid mostly we had York hamp cross. Gaining 2.2 lbs a day. Market weight then was 240 got docked outside that,what changed? Been off the farm since 1985. Can't even start a modern tractor. Took 5 yrs I could start one couldn't make it move. In 10 yrs couldn't figure out how to start it. Lmao.
Sick pigs have poor growth and are treated with injections. We also provide counseling and rehabilitation for pigs. I would also like to apply your technique.🐷
