Description
This weeks's CoopCast is a batch of updates and a bit of community. We talk about getting ready to move the pigs to their winter area and the fencing preparations that gointo that move. We give an update on deer hunting and pork sales (whihc are unrelated). We also are looking forward already to spring farrowing... and figuring out when our new gilt is in standing heat has been a challenge.
In the community we just answer a bunch of questiosn for our Facebook page!
