Hi,
Can anybody give me rough costs for rearing traditional breed pigs such as G.O.S, saddleback etc from weaners to finish, kept outside.
I'd imagine they would be finished at approximately 5 months as they can go a bit too fat if kept much longer. I used to rear them about 10 years ago but it wasn't financially viable keeping the sows.
Cheers
