To be honest Ross I was wondering if it was a hoax at first. Looks like the ram got into the pig pen! I never heard of such a pig before. Maybe that's the pig version of a labradoodle lol.

Kelliszoo has been after these for a while, she recently managed to get her hands on a half breed. I haven't seen any pictures of it yet though. They're cute, but I'd hate to have to be the one to scrape a butchered one if someone wanted skin left on!

My friends in Hungary raise them. for meat they cross them with Duroc pigs,
pure ones have a lot of fat (lard) which most people our days don't like
I will ask how winter hardy they would be, as Hungary does not get really cold
my friends think that -3 is very cold

Bacon and fur coat, how could you go wrong?
I am not fond of the "fatless pork", so this sounds pretty good to me.

That area on the map has some furry breeds.

The Puli and Komondor dogs....and a sheep breed with twisty horns.

I think the sheep are Racka, have the most amazing horns like an antelope rather than the usual ones seen on other sheep.
