Mangalitsa - Purebred
Description
Welcome! Here at Hogs & Horns Homestead we focus on six breeds of heritage pigs, more specifically endangered, purebred, heritage swine. The Mangalitsa is such a unique breed, they come in three main colours including the Swallowbelly, Red and Blonde. Our breeding herd is made up of a combination of the colours. Each have tracked lineage and some are registered through MBOAR.
Our breeding herd consists of two boars and six sows This allows us to decrease the inbreeding coefficient over time. We farrow year around and run a farrow to finish program. All our pigs are raised outdoors on a soy-free custom complete feed. With access to pasture to forage whenever possible.
We are currently offering:
Breeding quality pigs with tracked lineage as well as weanlings for meat. If you are looking for a boarlet please reach out to reserve from upcoming litters.
The Mangalitsa can get quite large average 400-650 pounds full grown and can reach a butcher weight of 250-300 pounds in 12 months depending on feed quality and living conditions. They offer delicious meat great for fresh cuts and whole muscle curing. Boasting a hefty fat layer.
Located East Cental Alberta. Transport options throughout Canada available.
