Can the order be cut per customer request or do we just get the carcass and have it cut up at our local meat locker? |

They are running about 220# so they should be ready for a ride in about a month or so. I'm targeting about 280 pounds. My daughters 'fair' pig won Grand Champion and she won Grand Champion show person. 'Krusty' went to the butcher shop today - tipping the scales at about 300 pounds. She was BIG! and really long. Due to our BWCA trip, she was able to chow for an extra week. Mostly- |

You don't by chance have a ballpark figure of what it's gonna cost me for a pig do you? I wanna make sure that I have enough set aside when the time comes. |

I'd be interested in this too.. I have a 7 cf freezer... How much space would a quarter take up? How many pounds? Thanks! [/Mouth Watering] |

Last year a half hog ran about 100 - 110 of cut and wrapped meat. So around $275 or so. Generally a quarter will fit in the freezer portion of a standard fridge/freezer combo (as long as there is little else in there.) |

Generally for a half hog you are looking at smoked hams and bacon cost around $30 or so, then what ever you want for sausages.

I'll be picking these guys up on Sat. I'm not sure if I'll be able to deliver any on Sat. though as I have to work at my part-time (sanity) job. I'll email all who ordered with the final cost after I weigh the boxes on Sat. So start cleaning out the Freezers! Porky is on the way! Mostly- |
