I love kune kune. But I can't trust the size estimates anymore. One source says they average 100lb. Another source 175 - 200. Another, 300. Which is it? There's a very large difference between 100lbs and 300lbs. 😂 I have a small property. I can't afford to buy a pair of breeders and end up with 600lbs total of pig. I just don't have the acreage. 😅

Can you please tell me the gauge needle your using I see you don't punch the neck like I do with the iron shots

Would that work for goats

So peaceful and heartwarming video. The farm looks like a dream <3

do you treat the pasture? because the mites can live for weeks in the environment.

Totally sold on this!

Can we give it orally?

My mom used to make me and my brother chocolate gravy and homemade biscuits I sure miss those days

Thank you for sharing some great ideas here that we will replicate for our pig setup! 😍

Do you worry about the cows contracting swine flu?

This would help with compaction

Is it realy accurate?

I grew up on that my mom always made it for us thanks for sharing looks great yummy😅😅😅

I use cornstarch rather than flour. It gives it more of a chocolate flavor instead of flour taste.

calm down boys or i will eat you

Are there any ways to tell if a gilt/sow is in heat if they aren't with males?

This is so informative! Thank you for making this vid!

Hi thanks for this video! I have a sow that I've been watching for pregnancy signs. we've had her for about a month. if she was bred when we think-she is due in about 3 weeks. she doesn't have much teet development but her vulva just became puffy and a little more pink (not crazy puffy but noticeable). will the vulva do this 3 weeks out? everything I read says the vulva doesn't begin to swell that early before farrowing. I'm worried she's in heat instead. thoughts?

FUN FACT! The word kunekune means “fat and round” in the Māori language and is pronounced, “KOO-KNEE, KOO-KNEE”. It was a wonderful video with lots of great info! We both learned from each other! Have a great day! 💕

👍🏻

Yep, you're absolutely correct, KP. I've wormed my kune-kune pigs using an Ivermectin dewormer paste. I gave a good dose of paste tucked/stuffed inside a sweet cinnamon bun. After ingestion, it did not take long before worms were sprawled throughout the pig's dump area. Once worms are discarded, the pigs are as frisky as ever, eating like pigs, and gaining weight. One time, a five month old piglet showed signs of being lathargic so I paid close attention to her as well as her sibling piglets for signs of worms or anything else out of the ordinary. Thanks much for the informative video. 👍🏽🤠 12/26/22

Great video! Thank you. We have had our boar for two years, but we are just about to get into breeding full kunekune's!

I notice that you don’t have any bedding down, is there a reason for no straw for them to lay and burrow in?

Good video. Just watched one guy's video that was more of a 3 stooges movie , like he'd never seen the piglets before.

LOVE chocolate gravy! Yours is just like what we have made for years! Only difference…. We butter the biscuits before putting the gravy on. 😊

😋😋😋😋👩‍🍳❤🦩

Hello, you are answer to my prayer. My husband and I have been deciding which piglets and heifer to start our small Homestead.My family of 3 started our small garden and was nice to know we did not have to go to the store to buy those items. My family now thinking about animals. We have our rabbits now(min Rex)2 buck and 4 doe. We now decided to get kunekune and min Dexters, for meat and milk

Hey there, My farrowiing pen will be in a stall, in our barn that has a dirt foor. Being you said no bedding, do you recommend putting a mat down (we have the thick black horse mats) or stay with the dirt flooring? Any help I very much appreciated.

Wondering how accurate these are? Did the tests end up being correct?

Thank you!

Thank you for your video! I have 2 females and 1 male. ( just got them, first timer) one is definitely pregnant. Should I separate her from the male and other female? Or just the male? Will he harm the babies once they get here?

Blessings!

What gauge needle do you recommend?

We have to do this at some point. Right now our two are sharing a fence line. I’m so nervous about putting them together! We just had to move a newer gilt up to the farrowing pen through our area where our first sow is and they even got in a fight! 😩 I also had someone strongly advise me to not get more than one boar and that it can be super dangerous for us and all of that. I realize they are animals and we always have to stay aware but after she kept telling me how bad of an idea it was it made me a bit nervous. Obviously we did it anyway lol but I don’t want a seriously injured or dead pig.

Great video Thank you very much. I enjoy that your to the point and very informative. God bless :)

What kind of fences do you use for your KuneKune pigs?

Thank you so much for your video great information.. Do you not care who's breeding who are they just meat pigs? Do you separate your sows when they're ready to furrow and when do you put them all back together again

Thanks for clearing up the Kunekune rooting behavior. It's definitely more like potholes than total yard demolition!

I love your cup-stick. My goats pee when I move them too. Thanks for the tips! Your boys are cute. I bet they didn't think they'd be testing pig pee when they grew up!

Thanks so much. I bought these on Amazon and we just found out our pig is pregnant. Thanks for the information, it helped a lot.

or u could have gave them a dishwash liquid all over rub then the day after mud up the wallow all good after ,

Such sweet little furry porkers.

I have a pig and breed her when she's in heat... But her vulva swells again after 3 weeks.. does this means she's not pregnant.??.. Sorry i'm not good in English.. please respond i need to know... Thanks

Thanks for sharing!! Very helpful. Love the stick n cup!

Thanks for sharing

Love seeing your Kune Kunes. Hope to get some on our homestead here in N. MS/TN line this Spring/Summer. Been researching them for a few years now. Love how yours are on pasture, ours would be as well.. Do you have a FB page? I can't get the website to pull up.

Fun & informative video! Love the boys helping out :) Not sure I’m gonna be sipping’ outta my red solo anytime soon 😂

This was too sweet for me, my kids loved it. The recipe i grew up on is lost, so ive been trying others til i find the right one. My kids love this recipe though so i may have to make them this one, and keep looking for one that is more like my godmothers.

Just wanted to say Thank you for making these super informative videos! Love how your videos are so straight forward. So many channels out there nowadays are “over-produced “ with little actual usable content. And a huge Thank You for not having that bebop cartoon-y music at the beginning of your videos.
