Re: Diamond @ Shaffer?
Very impressed with Doamond at Shaffer's. Will correct your gilts and sows, just needs to be taken to some muscle probably. Super sound, big flat boned, tall shouldered, up headed. Great boar, especially for his price.

Re: Mouse trap
Southern sky and blue smoke are very impressive aged boars that are still good on their feet and legs, huge boned, tall fronted with very good shape, but just needing to be taken to something with some middle to them. They are very good, top end sires that need to be used more.

Re: Mouse trap
Most complete blue boar I have seen. Bigger framed than I expected, perfect chest floor, tracks very true, huge spread to his front toes, big legged, up headed, and level topped. Very aggressive boar also. I would probably take him to a little muscle is about all I would change

Re: Down on pasterns
The pig is not tight and is on concrete. Heard that if I get the protein up more and reduce his intake to 4 or 5 lbs per day it may help

Pellet quality
Wanted to hear what feed manufacturer makes the best pellet. I can't seem to find one that holds together very well at all. I am feeding anywhere from a 16% to a 20% and have not seen much difference in three different manufacturers.
