what a day!! Hog round up!
wow. i am tired. we had to get some free ranging hogs together and collect them all up in a trailer. they didnt want to go.
i got a 100 lbs sow for myself. this time it was cool! we had a professional operation show up to do the wet work. hair/bristle removal and all! nice to have a reminder where meat comes from. i have all the pork i need for the year. unless i arrow a wild one, which aint likely. ![]() ![]()

pig goes for a bath in 140 degree water. and gets tossed into the "magic fingers". they rotated relatively slow, and simply yank the hair off. like the duck de-feathering machines. the pig stays in the bath until the butcher can yank off hair by hand.
here it is getting massaged. ![]()

Nice...nothing like knowing where your food is coming from.
We have fresh eggs every day from our hens...make me feel good to know my girls are not eating "processed" eggs...ate a wonderful venison stew last week from deer harvested from our farm....garden every year....wish I had more room...I would spend less at the store.

Cliff, why not just hang it from a tree and skin it ? Are you sending the tongue out for triginosis testing ?
