Meet Buddie the Buck
On Sunday I drove down to a farm to pick up a new LaMancha buck (Mocha is a LaMancha and Latte is 50% LaMancha). I ended up coming home with the buck as well as two piglets! We have been wanting to get pigs, American Guinea Hogs to be precise, to help with our surplus of milk. In doing research a lot of people have recommended growing pigs on milk (and feed). You can also feed pig eggs as long as they are cooked. We are now up to 5-6 eggs a day. Whatever eggs we don't sell we will boil and give to the pigs. I am hoping to raise them extremely frugally since we are already paying for chicken and goat feed. They are already gobbling up the milk from this mornings milking!
They need names...One castrated boy and one girl
