In this episode we discuss the different types of pigs: conventional, heritage breed, and my personal favorite: the Kune Kune pig. We have had to opportunity to raise all 3 types with lots of pros and cons from their housing needs to their diets. Pigs are fairly easy to raise, but we have found that they are really difficult to herd onto a trailer because they are so smart. There is nothing quite like raising up amazing bacon. One of the goals that we have for our homestead is to be able to process them ourselves. It is also great to be able to take our table scraps and old leftovers and have them be gobbled up by our Ewok like little piggies!
