Exodus of the pigsWell the pigs have left the building.
This morning Linda and I struggled and we finally got them aboard the trailer.
I then transported them to Tamworth where they will be sent to a place of execution.
Their remains will be then sent to Walcha Prime Meats where they will hang for a week before they are cut up into meal size portions.
Originally we wanted to have them killed on the farm, but the mobile butcher that we had organised was a repeat "no show". Even thought he was booked in to kill lambs for two of our neighbours, he didn't bother to come and never rang to explain why. He'd just promise to be there "next week" whenever we chased him.
Well we can't wait forever while we're buying feed for them, so we had to find another method.
And no photo yet. The batteries were flat after taking the photos of
Polo yesterday.
I did take a photo of them in the trailer before I left for Tamworth, but that's on a film camera so you'll have to wait to see how big they became before they were reduced into portions.
