    Cute little piggies. Yes I too saw this breed on Kevin and Sarah's channel. A lot of people are raising pigs this year because of the projected meat shortage. Lumnah Acres has two which they do every year for their meat....and Just about all the NC you tubers with the exception of Art & Bri are also raising pigs. Good luck with your two, it will be fun to watch them grow. Have a Blessed day.

      All those that seem to have your point of view usually are quick to judge those who choose to provide meat and vegetables for themselves. Meanwhile those like you have no problem with shipping an avocado 2000 miles or drinking soy milk that's been through heavy mechanical processes to be produced.

    Way to Cute. I think Justin Rhodes has same kind. That is where I learned about them. His may be all Pasture Pigs not sure. Maybe you should keep one of the Girls and get her a Boyfriend. Then you could raise your own. That way you'd have petting pigs lol. Enjoy Peace Be With You Both ☮️

      The Bible actually says we only idolize God, to idolize and adore are two very different things. God himself adored the creatures of the earth

  • @CJ-qj3pk
    @CJ-qj3pk Před 4 lety

    I have watched Kevin and Sarah's channel. However when he shot those pigs and drained them, could not, could not again watch the channel. I guess i would eat veggies and eggs only. Could not bond with an animal like you're doing and then know I was putting her into my mouth. I know, I know, what everyone is going to say to me. I know. Still I would have to distance myself completely to even think about it. I remember one channel where a gal had a goat. Was supposed to be killed for food. She could not bring herself to do it as it became more like a pet. . I guess her followers got to her and said she bought it for food now she needed to do it. I remember her saying the poor things trembled all the way. Stopped watching that one. Sigh . . . .

    • @1870s
      @1870s  Před 4 lety

      I'm sorry in advance if we loose you, but we have chosen this lifestyle to raise our own food. To give them a superior life than anything you would ever find at the grocery. Knowing where you food comes from and being responsible for how it is raised and taking its life humanely is s huge responsibility that we do not take lightly. But I wouldn't change a thing, if my heart breaks a bit through the process then I'm doing it right
