Hi ho, hi ho, its off to Exeter we go!!!

Friday morning means only one thing, off to Exeter Livestock Market to sell our surplus weaners. Sadly with the price of pig feed rocketing through the roof we cannot afford to keep anymore weaners than we need, so despite the fact weaners are not selling well we have to take them & sell them. Fingers crossed we get a fair price for them.

Its been a busy week here on Partridge Farm this week with Monday seeing the arrival of our very first lamb to see the New Year in. A ewe lamb too and she is doing well considering Mum is a first timer!! 2 of our pedigree Large Black sows also gave birth to two very healthy litters, so lots of new life here which is exciting!!
