random pigs that YOU have taken........

A city/farmer friend raises hogs for butchering. He has one that he wants to split with me.
I've done this before...much better eating than the grocery store crap.

I feared the thread title might refer to college Pig Night.

Glad to see my fears were unfounded.

As kids we went to see my grandparent's friend's farm. A 100% real working farm & ranch. He grew mostly wheat like most farmers in this part of the country. He also had dozens of chickens for eggs, pigs and cattle. He had a pair of geese as his "watch geese" and they alerted at all visitors. He had 4 horses for the his grandkids.

We went to to the pig area at the edge of the place and the aroma is rather strong. He had a HUGE mama sow suckling piglets. I had no idea that pigs could be so big.

He was a typical hard working farmer. Then one day the local power company came up, and said they need to put a large transmission line across his property and they would of course pay him a nice chunk of change for doing nothing, but letting them have the access and the spots to plant his wheat around. He was able to build a new house for his son on the property with that income. Then an oil company came along and drilled a well that hit, and he retired from farming with that income. I would bet it is a housing development or commercial development by now.

^^^ He was a very lucky man....Twice!!
