Our Piggies

Here at Piggiebank Farm we raise heritage pork.  We raise Red Wattle pigs and Red Wattle/Hampshire cross pigs.  Our pigs are raised without hormones, antibiotics, or steroids.  Our pigs are not confined to tiny, filthy, crowded pens.  They live their life spending time as pigs should: rooting up the dirt, rolling in the mud, and being allowed access to fresh pasture every day.


Here are our current pigs on the farm:




EOS - She is a Red Wattle Sow that is very pregnant right now with a litter of piglets. We have had her since she was 8 weeks old.  She is very gentle and friendly and loves being scratched behind her ears. Her piglets will be all Red Wattle.







SOCKS -  Socks is part Hampshire - part Blue Butt pig.  She was born here on our farm.  She had her first litter of piglets this year.  She is sweet and loves roll in the mud.  She is due to have a litter of half Red Wattle, one quarter Hampshire, and one quarter Blue Butt piglets on May 7, 2016.








NAPOLEON - Napoleon is our Red Wattle boar.  We have owned him since he was eight weeks old.  He is rambunctious and sometimes a bully to the other pigs.  He likes to hog the feed and run around the pastures chasing the other pigs.






Our last litter had only four piglets but they have all been strong and healthy.  We only have two of them for sale currently.
