The Red Wattle breed is a medium to large red hog that is known for its excellent meat quality and foraging ability. Red Wattles are docile and easy going making them very easy to handle, even when they have piglets. The pork is succulent and flavorful due to the fat marbling throughout the meat. These pigs are perfect for small farms and pasture operations. They are listed as critically endangered by the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy, but are making a comeback due to the renewed interest in high quality pork and a small group of dedicated breeders.
I downsized my breeding herd considerably but we still breed pigs year round and offer Red Wattle breeding and meat pigs for sale. Call for pricing and an inventory of what we have on hand.
