Shaffers just uploaded a video of him on facebook this morning. I made it out to the open house and I loved him. Upheaded, very correct, square made and blended very well. Sounds weird but he actually gave me chills when he walked out. Just preordered him the other day

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.

Carpspigs how did your babies end up? Do you have any pics? I have a sow bred to her due in July. I'm real excited to see how they turn out.

Tuesday June 27th walked into the farrowing room to eleven little beasts out of Diamond and our best sow ( BoneDaddy x HillBilly 2-2). All unassisted obviously and the bone and muscle on these little devils is awesome!! Mother has produced consistent winners at the County level and these babies will be available this fall for purchase.

Well we had 11 babies last night. 8 boars and 3 gilts. All very consistent in size and build. 6 "hamp" appearing, 3 solid blacks, and 2 chromed up crosses. Only had to pull 3. The sow passed them very easily and all within 15 minutes of each other.
