Close to my motto if you're raising animals for food - call them meat and don't pet them. :hungry: Their names are so cute!

We weren't allowed to play with them, either, although they are SUCH fun! We always named our pigs food names too – Pork Chop and Hambone, Bacon and Eggs, Breakfast and Dinner.

His name was bacon...it is hard because after a while they will come when you call them, they act a lot like dogs. BUT I got over it when I was frying up some bacon....LOL :pinkpig: I did the “raise your own pig” thing last year.

Just remember that the more good food they get, the better they will taste! No more 'factory farm meat' for me! They get fed cardboard (fiber) and garbage. They live in disgusting conditions! I wish we had room for a goat or cow for milk. Little N. just loves dairy products! I think you are so lucky to have enough land to be self sufficient. As the economy continues to slide, more people are going to be looking for advice. Keep up the great work!!

This year's pig is named Schnitzel and last year's was Applesauce as in "Pork Chops and Applesauce" from Peter Brady. He had Appaloosa spots so it seemed to fit nicely. :happyflower: Love the names, hope you don’t mind if I use them next year.

Sweetie, you couldn't even kill Mean Rooster! And he was charging at you and Morgan. Somehow I don't think these guys are destined to be dinner, or breakfast or lunch either. ;) :pinkpig: :hungry: Uhmmmm…so you really think you’re going to EAT these.

His response was,"No!No pigs!" :no: You know since I brought the chicks home he is the one finding all the treats, and clucking at the girls so they come running. :heart: I would rather have a Clover. :yes: I made my Husband come look at the pig video.

I know it will be hard to eat them. It's your 1st year or so with lots of new animals. BUT those of us who like to eat meat need to realize where it comes from. At least you'll know the source and know that it was raised humanely and given healthy food. Can't wait to see what Pocahontas is! PS. LOVED the video. Good pig wrangling 52! I love the names.
