County Fare went back on line in mid October. We have one bred to him right now. Bred her October 19th out of the 1st collection they sold. Will see here in a few days if she is bred.

War Fare is a Stress Carrier.

<t>I agree! I don't use more than 2 doses per sow or gilt. I have a very specific regiment that I go by and it has done wonders for our conception rates.

Ours were out of crossbred sows and my dad's were out of purebred york sows (one Ton daughters).<br/> <br/> the one crossbred litter was just OK. The sow didn't really match up to him that well.
