Registered Kunekune Pigs, meat pigs and breeders available.
Description
Our Cobble Hill (Vancouver Island) herd has been selected and bred with marketable qualities such as length and growth rate in mind, with an emphasis on pasture pork genetic. All of our adult breeding stock met or exceeded our growth rate goal of 200lbs by 12 months old. Each of our breeders have also received their IKHR pork panel genetic report.
Our main focus is pork production but we also sell a few select pigs for breeding each year, and many more to homesteaders who wish to process their own meat. I do my own for our personal consumption and they are a nice size for me to work with.
We offer purebred kunekune meat pigs ranging from freshly weaned to larger grow outs. Freshly-weaned meat piglets (barrows) are $300 each (or $250 each for a group of four or more) and older grow-outs are $5/lb live weight. Intact breeding stock are more expensive and a range of prices can be found on our website.
We love Kunekune because of their docile personalities, their ability to graze on pasture, and their dark red delicious meat. Since they are disinclined to root, ours live in amongst our orchard and vineyard. They keep our land rotationally grazed and fertilize as they go. They are a welcome part of our long-term subsistence farming strategy.
We raise a genetically diverse herd that is carefully monitored for health, regularly dewormed, and vaccinated. The breeding stock we offer represents the best of our breeding program. The majority of our stock is harvested to feed our family and community or sold as companions with breeding stock.
All our Kunekune are registered with International Kunekune Hog Registry (IKHR) and are double registered with the American Kune Kune Pig Society (AKKPS). Mature hogs pictured are part of our breeding program and have litters on the ground or planned litters.
