    The thing I love about your videos is that you give the background and get to the point without rehashing all you are doing over and over again. Your communication skills and experience developed in the corporate world in communicating with people make listening to you a pleasure. Great job.

    Ginger isnt getting tame because pigs are competative eaters. The pig more willing to come close to you gets the most food. Ginger doesnt have to compete for food so she just waits for you to drop it and get our of the way.

    A suggestion: Your work lane between the pig pens looks useful. If you swapped out the gates for longer ones that would span the lane when opened fully, you could dispense with having to pack the separate hog panel to shut it off. By placing the hinges on opposite sides of each gate, simply swing them across and have the two pens connected until you got through moving pigs. Good job on your channel, well deserved congrats.

    • @ivories88wi

    FYI: I've seen newborn piglets go through a sheep & goat fence. Being newborns especially, momma was very aggressively trying to get to them. I would put either another strip of fence or pig fence on the bottom of your gate before the other mom has her piglets. It can save you a lot of stress and possibly a emergency situation.

    Love pigs-Many, MANY years ago, I won awards while on the FFA Swine Chain. Also at our local animal auction, the auctioneer advertised a couple weeks ahead of time whenever I was going to bring in Weaner/Feeder pigs-he always got me the highest prices for my gentled pigs. I surely wish I could get back in to raising pigs again. I am so loving the IPP’s! I had mainly Durocs back then. I’m 61 now-so 4H & FFA was over 40 years ago!!!
    I don’t plant here until after the 1st of June we have 27 degree here every night. Last frost is towards the end of May; 1st frost is usually mid September!
