Landrace boar X Blue gilt or Blue butt gilt

Post by SwineGuy89 » Sun Aug 21, 2016 12:07 pm

What are the possible color combinations that will come from this? Will the ears become semi erect or stay floppy?
It's not all about being the heaviest muscled hog, Its about balance.

It was just going to be an off litter, why do your reccomend strongly against it, (I have seen some scary landrace crossings) is that a factor?

Most pigs will be white with some color possibly on rear and around eyes.
