    I have been considering the same but opted against as I don't really have the land here for keeping all year, they would have to go down the road to my other field. Plus it's that all year commitment and feeding, buying 2 or 3 weaners and growing them on for a few months works best for me personally.

    Be interested to know how you get on with having them in pig 👍

    Boar taint is horrible but it’s a lottery, sometimes they are alright but when they ain’t it’s a flavour on the back of your throat never to be forgotten !

    Those pigs are tidy, Oxford Sandy Blacks or some derivative mate ? 
    I had Tamworth x GOS and they looked very similar as well. 

    I pick them up  from slaughter house in next day or two hope meat not tainted

    I didn't ask for weights or owt on my last, I just took em in. Mabye I should, I'm still learning!

    Do you keep boars for meat? I was put off by someone, a relative of a neighbour, who keeps pigs. Said...... "if you take one piece of advice don't have boars, nothing worse than having 3-4months of keeping a pig for it to give you a freezer full of meat that tastes like piss"

    It's always put me off, I always ask for gilts when I'm looking.

    Am new to keeping pigs to , I was told bore sound for meat as long you kill at 6 ,7  months old  as after that meat tastes like piss

    Think it was the same dog mate a good mate from Harworth in North Nottingham and his mate got a couple of pup's out of the breeding and they definitely had no reverse gears and the blue one out of the two pup's was a bit touchy with other dogs when it was an adult. I think the cross took off in the late 80s with dogs like Irish Bob's Rambo and other named dogs of similar breeding that lads were killing a lot of gear with. 

    Irish bobs rambo that's a name you don't hear about now , was some good dogs up an down country from rambo , les Gedge blue some good dogs came out of him to , I do no when les used blue on some bitches he would take two pups from litters , he bred litter himself properly been dogs up an down country out of blue like said he got put to alot of bitches
