Re: Designing a better sewage pump.

We have a 16" wide through with a 14" diameter sump about 18" deep at end of through behind our crates. I would venture to guess 70% of what we pump is liquid (water and pee). The poop breaks down in the bottom of the sump with the liquids. You just have to be careful not get foreign ...

Re: Designing a better sewage pump.

We have used this pump for last 4 years on our farrowing house. Kinda same set up you have. Bought a second one as back up but the original one has yet to die. These are great pumps for the money!

Re: Help with Duroc boar

Big Center at Stewart's sounds like a good candidate. Doug is great to deal with and semen quality is excellent. Big Center has had some success recently too.

Our highest rutting activity was right around Nov 9-13th this year. With the cool weather is was one of the more intense ruts I can recall. Pretty much evening hunts from this point on since most does have been bred and they are back on bed to feed patterns.

Re: Important Ohio State Fair Shows Notice

I feel for the Ohio State Fair exhibitors and the staff at Ohio State Fair. So if I undertand the above posts correctly some Open Show boars and gilts got shipped to slaughter after they discovered the PED virus in one of the pigs?

Texas Holdem is at Top Cut. Texas Stud is at Shipley's.
