Man Crush on All In gilt?

Post by EMC » Sun Oct 23, 2016 6:36 am

I have an All In x Vantage Point x Old School gilt. She has plenty of muscle, and above average bone. Needs flattened out on top, maybe a taller on the front third, and her neck extended. When I seen Man Crush at LVS I figured he would solve the extension issue, and I watched him in the LVS video and seemed to be a compliment to her in the other areas. Anyone use him? I haven't nt heard alot about him.

I think he would do what you needed. I have heard that he is weak in his pasterns so make sure your female is good there.

I agree he has a really freaky front end that should help you a lot. I am surprised to hear about his pasterns because when I was looking for boars awhile ago they recommended me to him to fix one on her wheels.

I have a friend that used Man Crush on a hamp belted Blue Empire (WD) sow. His attractive front end came through very nicely, but there was absolutely no bone passed on. Every pig in the litter was under boned. She had 11, 5 all black boars, 1 all black gilt, and then 4 black and white gilts. 7 made it. 1 has pastern issues, but all the others are high on their pasterns. Overall we were not very impressed.

So I ended up using Pop ur Collar on the gilt. I did use Man Crush on a Legendary gilt. She only had 2live. 1 barrow is nothing to speak of and the gilt is growing nicely but right now isn't showing anthing special. The pOp ur Collars are growing slow, I seen today they dropped the price in half on him, LVS really pushed him for me to use him.
