We picked up our two Red Wattle Feeder Pigs from a breeder (Idle River Farms) in June 2018. We paid $80 each for them. They were pasture paddock raised for 6 months where we supplemented organic pig grain, with kitchen and garden waste. Here is a breakdown of our return vs. cost:

2 Piglets $160
Total Feed $560
Processing Fee: $440.00
Hanging weight at butcher: 483 Pounds

Total cost: $1160 / 483 Pounds = $2.40 per pound

We hope we answered any questions people may have about our experience as first time "pig raisers". If we missed anything at all, please drop a comment down below and we'll do our best to answer right away. - Todd & Rachel
