The choice was ours. When University of Pennsylvannia called a few months ago and asked
“Will you impregnante  one of your Red Wattle Hogs with one of your Red Wattle Boars, then prove the pregnancy, then prove she is free of all other diseases, then keep her safe and healthy the next 15 weeks, then prove she is still pregnant, then find someone willing to do all your chores for a couple days, then transport her nearly 900 miles so we study the difference between heritage hogs raised on pasture and confinement hogs raised…well on confinement?”

We said “Sure”

So now getting closer to the date, Miss Sophie is getting a custom built sow carrier.

She looks happy don’t you think? She should be since she is the first one in her family for generations to be going to an institute of higher learning. We’re very proud of her.
