The fact that you care enough about the pigs welfare to spend a couple of days feeding them in the trailer so they can used to it and aren't scared on their last drive really shows how much you care for your animals. Thats why I love this channel so much.
There seems to be a few scammers in these comments trying to take advantage of folk. I know this channel maybe has some older subscribers who are less familiar with these scams potentially.

My pigs go next Wed. Started feeding them about 10 days ago from the trailer. Last 3 mornings I go out to feed them breakfast they are sound asleep in the trailer. Easy peasy.
It's really good to hear that the pigs were cared for right up to the end. I admire your 'one bad day' policy, Morgan. And as for Sir Porkington? His disappearance will forever be a mystery.
Sir Porkington once heard you say you would get goats “when pigs fly” and he took that seriously. Did you even THINK to look up Morgan? Perchin in trees not waiting for the apples to drop.
Pigs can wander pretty far, a possibility is workington wandered pretty far during the night far away from ur search and then a preditors found him. If think if he died & your pigs ate him u would hav found bones & ur pigs would hav been too full to eat their normal meal that day, possibly. Poor guy.🐷 🤟✌💕🙋🏻♀️
Words can't express how wonderful to see the kindness and caring in how you raise your animals. Even making sure their last ride is a good experience for them. If only every farmer who has animals could be like you Morgan.❤
IMO: Pigs are smart animals, I think Sir Porkington knew when to get out when the getting out was good. And to know that the surrounding areas are filled with apples, he might just😂 be living his best life…. Maybe he will show up in the winter ❄️???
@@PredictableEnigma I doubt that there are many wild predators (as opposed to "humans") in that part of the US that will willingly take on a 250 lb plus pig
I think we all agree that you need pigs next year. While we understand the sour taste from sir porkington leaving, between the land they help clear and the likely profit it feels like a good idea. Plus just the waste removal is a big deal. But, we all will be cheering you on regardless of your decision. Keep the great content coming!
My pot belly boar ran away a few times when i first got him. He came back after the apple drops were mostly gone and snow had fallen. Bugger grew 40 pounds by the time he wanted back in my barn. Acted like he never left.
All creatures great and small. Great british tv series. We who raise small and large animals, and enjoy knowing how they were raised, fed, loved, and in the end bless them for their short lives appreciate a life well lived. This was a good episode Morgan and neighbor. Thank you gentlefarmers. 💚🐮🐔🦃🐄
@@bigbarret11 Nah, Morgan said alfred couldnt have done it, because he doesnt have a trailer or the time to get in there silent and move out a pig... to then do what with the pig? With all that time gone he pig is clearly gone... in case of a prank you would give the pig back faster and not keep and feed it for like 2 weeks.
Making them comfortable, happy and full of treats warms my heart. People always ask me if it’s hard to harvest animals that I have raised, and I respond that I like it better then eating meat that I don’t know how the animal was raised and treated etc.
Exactly. Many small time farmers and homesteaders do their best to live by "only one bad day." And even then you want it to be as stress-free as absolutely possible. That's why I much prefer the idea of butchering at home instead of usda, because the trip there and the wait before their turn... and usually the workers don't give a shit about the stress and fear and just rush.
Do you think it was that old man who was letting his hunting dogs on your property and the one who tried to set fire to your barn the one who might of stole your pig? That’s who keeps coming up in my mind.
I think it was probably a viewer. It's not like it's a secret where he lives. He has almost a million subscribers. I wouldn't put it past some of them to go to his farm.
Well that was clever how you got them calmly loaded on the truck, and it was a nice thing the friend who loaned said truck wanted to drive you to the final destination. I still can’t figure how or where Sir Porkington is, just hope he’s enjoying the good life. Thanks for the update Morgan!🐖🐖🐖❤🕊
Lol... I'm dying😂😂😂... the "Unsolved Mysteries"... Excellent!!! Sir Porkington... Peacham's very own Pigfoot... Maybe one day he will return... You are such a caring and loving farmer/homesteader... Those piggies lived their best life before they make for some very happy bellies!!!
You care so much about all your animals on the farm, I hate hearing that poor pigs have been forced to get off and on. But the way you do it and raised them was perfect. And sir porkington may of found a secret spot in your yard to die if he was unwell.
This verse is for your missing pig. Thunder crashed, lightning flashed. The whole world was shaken The little pig picked up his tail And ran to save his bacon
I had a neighbor that had 2 pigs that escaped. They ran around in the woods for over 2 years, breaking into chicken coops and raising heck. He got call one day saying they were seen walking down our dirt road. He went out there and called to them and they followed him home. They were quite large by that time! So hang in there, you may get a surprise. P.C
Yeah. I am in the same mindset. Alfred might have done it, but he wouldn't have kept him for so long. But maybe Alfred will use this for future pranks. I can see an inflatable pig turning up on the farm, "Look Morgan, Sir Porkington is back"
I think he would have returned him promptly because he knows Morgan needed the money for the meat. I don't think he would have kept him past slaughter day.
sir porkington is 100% a feral pig now, bc pigs are really good swimmers so it he didnt drown i guess. did u know guys how a pigs physical changes in a half a year when he has gone feral? he will look as totally different in a half a year. as always much love from Estonia.
Zak was great, spoke so well, I understand your reluctance to do more pigs but they do add a lot to the farm and watching them grow big makes good video, obviously disappointing to lose one but likely to be a one off.
I thought they all escaped. And that maybe Sir Porkington came back and told them they needed to make a break for it. But at least their final trip was less stressful due to Morgan's strategy of getting them used to the trailer ahead of time.
The ones the Spanish brought with them in the 1500s/1600s got loose and went feral. They're now a menace and hunted with no bag limit. They're also quite tasty.
Very interesting to see the land management aspect of Morgan's way of raising just a few pigs in a controlled way - wild or feral pigs are a whole other story and can be incredible destructive. They did not naturalize as much as many non natives, they cross breed with wild pigs, and don't even get me started on factory farming of pigs, which of course Morgan would never do!
My headcanon is Sir Porkington has been adopted by a band of 46 Coyotes who all have been evicted from their own packs, and are building strength for the eventual take over of the farm, and his voice sounds like Ken Watanabe somehow.
@@nodigBKMicheI thought he disappeared like 2 days into their vacation? So someone knew he was gone... My guess is still the hound hunters and haters.
I was well into adulthood, like my 30's before I realised the little pig that went to market was going to become food. To be fair, many nursery rhyme books have illustrations of the the little pigs all dressed up in clothes walking to market like they are going for a nice day of shopping so yeah. For my girls the little pigs have sushi, because they loved sushi rolls when they were little, they still do
@@dalyo96 i think if I saw it right there was a kinda deep looking puddle going through the fence, he could've slipped through there without harming the fence 🤔 at like 1:17
I thought at first a bear carried him off, but now I think some stole that pig. My friend had a farm at the dead end of a country road and a calf in the back of that property was stolen. Just came back to a mama cow mooing in distress. Local cops say people just drive up and steal the calfs by putting them in backseat of car. My friend assumed it must have been a neighbor to even know a you g calf was back there. It was more disturbing to him a “friend” likely stole his calf. I felt bad for that mama cow.
At this stage some retainment in a concrete barn stall over nights wouldn't hurt and shrink your piggy forest fair area... Well not shrink it but more secure. I understand the free range aspect but a temporary fix is needed by the looks of it.
That's nice of you're friend to drive you. Myself I was nervous getting used to trailers. I just had to bite the bullet and pull one all of the time to get good. Best thing I can tell you is force yourself to only use your mirrors in reverse. Never turn around and watch unless ur sitting still.
IDK you or Alfred, but based on your videos: The plow prank was funny because you mostly did it to yourself. The time you wasted, the worries over theft... all your own fault, and Alfred's prank actually gave you relief. Alfred- or anyone- actually stealing your pigs himself, and being an outside source of all that time and worry for you, would not a friendly prank at all.
Do you market any of your poultry for locals to purchase? Guard geese goslings, pullet chicks(which means you have them for a couple months) I also hope this coming spring you have a fabulous calving season! Females to grow the herd, males to grow out for meat & perhaps a good confirmation male to sell for a breeder.
A man I taught with used to catch a ride with another teacher about whom there are many hours of stories. This time, my friend was told they might be a little late because he had another stop. Before heading to school they dropped off a market weight pig that they got to the slaughter house in a Chevy Chevette!!! It was just loose in the back seat.
Stop saying its your farming failure...its a farming mystery. There was nothing you could have done better or figured out how to do better yet...really could be aliens
The fact you took the time to get them used to the trailer and even gave them plenty of feed so the pigs would be comfortable is so nice to see, if you do decide to get pigs next year could be a good idea to set up trail cams to watch them, Sir Porkington's disappearance is definitely a mystery ♥
I get the feeling that in the dark of the night some night, you will hear the far-off triumphant Squeeee of the now feral Sir Porkington....who will now be, as others have suggested, the legendary Pigfoot.
"This little piggy" Is one of my sons favorite rhymes we do. he loves being tickled. Every time I sing it im thinking please son dont ever understand what Im saying to you right now lol
Why are you feeding them before shipping ? 24 hours feed and water withdrawal is normal and improves food safety. Empty guts equals less spillage and contamination.
THE OTHER PIGS DID NOT EAT HIM.. they would have left the grunt , skull, trotters ...And it would have taken them at least a week to dispose of him entirely.... I truly believe he was stolen ... Maybe he got out someone found him and kept him or sold him off
This video reminded me about when you first got pigs and viewer's comments about them escaping and joining the wild pigs. That could definitely be fodder for a very whimsical book.
If Sir Porkington made a break for it, and wasn't somehow silently stolen, what's the likelihood that he will survive? I've heard of people wanting to introduce wild pigs in Vermont, but that was long ago.
pigs turn into feral hogs within a few months of escape or release; growing coarse hair, growing bigger tusks, significant changes in handleability, ect. They adapt to the wild dangerously well, though winter in Vermont might challenge them
sir porkington might have migrated to south Georgia where there are wild pigs running thru farms ....just saw two shot n left by roadside to feed the vultures yup ...
Ww have wild pigs/hogs in California, too. They are tearing up raches and breeding like rabbits. Not a good scenario. They can do a lot of damage and can be dangerous to hunt.

A good farmer does everything they can to keep the livestock happy because that makes for better meat.
I'd like to believe he's with Molly Murder Mittens. The idea of them together makes their losses almost bearable.
"PIGFOOT"
@@harpintnSo if terrorizing the animals made for better meat, then farmers should adopt that practice? 🙄
I really liked that aspect as well.
@@lillyess385 Not the small farmers, who knows about the mega corporations.
The conversation with your friend was fun. A thank you to your friend for agreeing to you filming the conversation.
I knew it wasnt alfred when Sir P didnt reappear after the holiday ... Alfred would never string animal care this long
Thank you for the insight. I forget how much free education that I get from listening to those much wiser than me.
That conversation was awesome! Alfred would definitely not let a prank last this long
Sir Porkington once heard you say you would get goats “when pigs fly” and he took that seriously.
Did you even THINK to look up Morgan? Perchin in trees not waiting for the apples to drop.

That totally sounds like something Sir Porkington would do!

If he survives the wilds and predators then that'd be amazing.
@@PredictableEnigma I doubt that there are many wild predators (as opposed to "humans") in that part of the US that will willingly take on a 250 lb plus pig
I can picture Sir Porkington now, on a beautiful beach, in Zihuantanejo Mexico, working on an old boat.

Get busy livin…

The pixilated Unsolved Mysteries clips got me. Lmao! I bet Sir Porkington is going to show up in a few months figuring he survived the slaughter. 😂
If he shows up he won't look the same. Hogs physically change when they go feral.

He has trail cameras all over his property. Not sure if he had checked the footages yet.
He lost a pig and didn’t check trail cameras? With all the trouble he’s had and his UA-cam money I’d think he’d have cameras everywhere.
Maybe same person who took the cat?

Those paddles are used on many types of livestock, including bison.

Sir Porkington turned into chupacabra - that is our mystical animal here in Texas.

Hey Morgan, I have an idea, “Pig-foot,” the pig formerly known as Sir Porkington. A kid friendly Halloween Adventure Book lol.
This video reminded me about when you first got pigs and viewer's comments about them escaping and joining the wild pigs. That could definitely be fodder for a very whimsical book.
Pig disappeared right before slaughtering time. Hmm sounds like that pig is now pork chops. Get some security cameras.
sad to see them go! but then we see the cows
If the pigs are your biggest income, I would definitly get pigs the following year. Financial stability is a blessing + it makes for good content;)
