my favorite is duroc because they grow fast, their color is awesome, and they are muscular.

Gotta say I HAVE to go with the polands. Always REALLY wide, and they also make good mothers if you get good ones. :)

yorkshire of course cause they are faster growing and the gilts or sows are always great mothers in my mind they r the best breed of all.

I'm a real sucker for a good pure hamp. Although i love solid black hogs and blue butts too. I really like the crosses because some of my best hogs have been crosses and they seem to dominate at the shows if it's not crosses winning everything it's hamps.

personally i like yorks and xbred pigs best. like yorks becaue they are very good mothers and they usually have good tempers for when you walk them. i like xbreds too because they are the best pigs at shows 90% of the time and i also like all the different possible markings they have. blue butt pigs with some blue on the face are probably my favorite marking on pigs

Durocs because they are a nice color and are hearty animals.
