A barrow is a castrated male swine. Thanks to Raj Singh we have five. I did my catching and holding bit. Feeling confident I can be on the other end with Raj overseeing next time.
All went well. I think it hurt Barney seeing his little boys turn into barrows.
Raj reckons Gypsy the Sow has another week of feeding in her: that will help put more condition on the piglets before Winter sets in.
