We have a slot at a butcher shop in March for a steer and a pig. I would like to grow my own pig this year.I have never been around hogs and not sure where to start. I want to buy one or two feeder pigs and feed them out. We have ear corn,shelled corn and oats here on the farm and our own grinder mixer. Plan on raising them in a box stall under the old dairy barn. Plan on buying a couple of crossbred bottle calves as well to add to my feeder calves next spring. When should I buy one to have it big enough to butcher the beginning of March? Will most likely get two as no animal likes to be raised alone.Last year the butcher shop supplied the pig and the flavor was nothing great(a guess it was from a confinement barn?). Thanks Tom
