Welcome back to Adam Henson's Farm Diaries - Fridays with Fran!
Fran's here to introduce our new set of Berkshire Pigs, 2 sows and an impressive boar named 'Freight Train'. They replaced our Kune Kune pigs a few years back, when Fran (raised in Berkshire) campaigned for their place on the Farm Park. Learn about the distinguishing features of this rare breed of pig, why it fell out of favour and meet one of our sow's first litter of piglets.
Meet Fran, a key member of our team, who knows all the ins, outs and personalities of the 50+ breeds we have on site. Fran will be here most Fridays to share stories and updates from our British farm park.

My 9 year old daughter shows our Berkshire boar.

I'm planning on buying two Berkshire guilts this weekend and this has been very informative. Thank you. And I love how the young lady says Berkshire.

Hi, can I ask why it was decided to change breed from the Kune. Thanks.

@CotswoldFarmPark 2 года назад

Good question! Besides Fran's personal affection towards them and ability to convince our head stockman, the Berkshire's had proven to be quieter piglets, perfect for our demonstrations and 'meet the piglets' events, even more so than the Kune Kune.

@samanthabrookes3604 2 года назад

@@CotswoldFarmPark thanks for your reply 👍. If Berkshires are easier/quieter than the Kune Kune I will have to reonsider which will the better for me 🤔

@samanthabrookes3604 even though a year has passed since your comment I wanted to put my 2 cents in . At this time I have mulefoot/red wattle, Idaho pasture pig, kunekunes,large black, mulefoot/wild hog mix and American guniea hog/kunekune mix and large black yorkshire mix . My buddy had berkshires and he likes them but he's now split of getting ipp(idaho pigs). Berks are good pigs with great meat no doubt about that . But in my experience the Idaho pasture pig is superior mine has a kune like personality , shes about 9 or 10 months and well over 210lbs , very quiet and not terribly destructive like some other breeds and the meat us next level IMO . The other two breed I say are worth a look would be a red wattle mix and surprisingly (to me) one of better mixes I strongly recommend is the yorkshire/large black , mine are super docile , should be great mothers(my pigs mother did a good job I was told ) and they will produce alot of meat with a decent litter size . I also have a potbelly lol .

Can you export to india

@therobertsuk8498 2 года назад

Can you turn off the subtitles please, it’s really annoying! You can turn subtitles on if you want or need to use them, so there is no need to do this. Please give us the choice of having them on or off.

@johnh7632 2 года назад

The subtitles were very helpful. Not a distraction at all.

Thank you to you both for the feedback. It is something we currently plan to continue doing for those who benefit from it, although we will continue to observe our viewers preferences.
