  5-12 was ahead of her time! Stoutness, agility and great balance allowed her to make a huge contribution to our sow herd that will last a lifetime. After producing numerous champions over 12 years, we put this great sow to rest in the Fall of 2010.   6-11 was responsible for producing several show pig boars that we put into stud. Her correctness of skeleton and structure still resonates in our sow herd today.

Best Buy x Immortal 69-3

 
  One of the stoutest sows on the farm, this Fatal sow stamps the same show barrow look into each litter. She's stout everywhere, and we think her mating to Super Monster will make for the perfect blend of power, athleticism and balance. Due in early January.   This young sows momma generated a class winner at the Texas majors 4 years in a row. She is a great built, square bodied one that will benefit from some extra structure that we think Toxic 9-8 will bring to the table. Due to Toxic 9-8 in early January.   This Best Buy sow was a great show gilt in 2010, and was named Champion Crossbred at the Allen County Fair in Fort Wayne, IN. She raised the high-selling barrow at the 2011 ISU B&B pig sale as well. We believe she is as close to ideal in her general build and design as any of our young sows. We think her mating to County Fare will be the perfect barrow generating match. Due to County Fare in early January.

  Throw the judging team lingo out…this sow is just good! She's generated numerous county fair and jackpot winners, and her littermate brother was a class winner at Houston a couple of Spring's ago. Her showpig look and expressive shape should blend nicely with Deep Threat's durable skeleton and pliable frame. Due to Deep Threat in early January.   Tabor John's old show gilt! AND, built just like him…stout, square and good looking. This belted sow is a littermate to our Reserve Junior Gilt at the Crossbred Classic in 2009, and comes from a line of females that have been extremely consistent for us. Her Sweet Tooth litter has belted show barrow written all over it!!! Due to Sweet Tooth in early January.   High-selling $7,500 gilt purchase from the 2011 World Pork Expo. This gilt defines our commitment to continue to reload our sow herd with females that will generate stout, good looking, agile show barrows that will command attention in the ring. She is without a doubt one of the boldest, most correct sow prospects that we've bred. The one thing we really appreciated about Deep Threat when we found him in Indiana, was the fact that everything was moving forward when the hog was in motion. He's a hog that's rugged in his general appearance, but never pushes a joint awkwardly or gets outside of his skeleton. This has been one of the most anticipated, and talked about mating's that we've had at our place in a long time. Due to Deep Threat in mid January.  
             
       
 

Space Monkey x Immortal 69-3

  Super Natural x Fatal Attraction x Immortal 69-3  

Stimulus Package x Alias 27-1

 
  We've been accused of being slow learners, but would prefer to play the sand bagger card here! This is arguably the best Space Monkey sow on the farm. She will flat out put a big paw in hogs and offers the right maturity pattern as her pigs have consistently grown into bone instead of out of it. The Warfare x Space Monkey mating has proven to be rock solid and we expect big time results as these two powerful hogs combine. Due to Warfare in late January/early February.   The most prolific, young generator of winning show hogs on our farm right now. In her first litter she raised the Grand Champion Market Hog at the 2011 ISU Block & Bridle Show and in her second litter she pumped out the Reserve Grand Champion Market Hog at the 2011 AKSARBEN Stock Show. This sows littermate sister bred to Big Stick produced the Reserve Grand Champion Market Hog at the Iowa State Fair 4H Show last Summer. We're real risk takers and went out on a limb and bred this one to Big Stick. No question marks…and a proven path to the Winner's Circle! Due to Big Stick in late January/early February.   This is one unique mating! Here's a great looking young sow that is big footed, extreme in her muscle shape and is as square in her hock joint as any you'll find. If Big Stick can contribute his patented spread of center and lower rib shape, this ought to be lights out! Due to Big Stick in late January/early February.  
             
       
 

Batman x Space Monkey

 

Eye Candy 33-3 x Big Screen

 

Night Train x Super Natural x Fatal Attraction

 
  She raised our high selling $5,900 baby pig from last Spring's Iowa Elite Sale, and is the best daughter of the Space Monkey sow that we speak so highly of above. This girl has one heavy duty skeleton and is super correct. In fact, she's clicked in her first two litters bred to Warfare and Moonshine…hogs on opposite ends of the spectrum. She brings the kind of breeding versatility to our sow herd that we hope to emulate many times over! This go round she's bred to one of the best young belted boars we found last Summer. Due to Sweet Tooth in late January/early February.   This is one foxy female in person! She had a super Banger litter this Fall and we expect to hear big things out of them throughout the Winter. We've bred her to Change of Pace, and for all the hog "feeding" enthusiasts out there…these barrows will epitomize good structure and great balance. Plus, Tye's a Yorkshire enthusiast and says this one is a no brainer! Due to Change of Pace in early February.   Tater's Grand Champion Market Hog at the 2011 ISU Block & Bridle Show. This is one cool young sow! As a show gilt, was as genuine in her top shape as any that we've fed and a neat bonus considering she was so good in her skeleton and angles. She's got a littermate sister that's just as impressive and due to No Fare in late January, and she's bred to Toxic 28-3 and due to pig in early February. For some serious show hog contenders in August…look no further!!! Due to Toxic 28-3 in early February.  
             
       
 

Super Cool x Batman x Immortal 69-3

 

Bullet Proof x Immortal 69-3 x Alias

 

Detox x Space Monkey

 
  Big boned, wide and sound! We've got a pair of these littermate Super Cool sows that come from a Batman female that was one of the best we've assembled. She's got a littermate sister bred to Toxic 28-3 (due in late January), and this girl is bred to Sweet Tooth for an early February litter. If you're in the market for show hogs that ought to look the part from the start and only gain steam throughout the feeding period…we think these hogs will be just the ticket. Due to Sweet Tooth in early February.   We've got three littermate Bulletproof sows on the farm that have been consistent generators of division winning barrows at the Iowa State Fair. We've got one bred to Deep Threat (due late January), one bred to He B It (due late January) and this one is due to Change of Pace in late February.   Many farm visitors said this gal was the best baby pig that they'd seen all Spring in 2010. She had an outstanding Batman litter last Fall and we placed several big time barrows into great homes for Houston out of this one. She's as moderate, wide and correct as they come…just built like a truck! With that said, we've been looking for that heavy structured hog that brings some flat out agility and correctness to the table. We're pretty positive we've found him in Deep Threat. This mating should generate good livestock. Due to Deep Threat in late March/early April.
