[@SheratonParkFarms]

Lemme tell you! If it weren't for her, nothing would get done around here. She's awesome. Appreciate ya'll watching.

[@CecilliaDB]

I'm learning allot from your videos. Planning to raise some feeder pigs out this coming summer so the videos are a great resource. Thank you!

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Cool! Keep us posted on how things go. Thanks for watching

[@PopleBackyardFarm]

[@SheratonParkFarms]

[@shawn8163]

Your farm is a work of art

[@tcook564]

Find a small trailer and I used pig panels for side and pulled it with 4 wheeler. It was 4x8 trailer it worked great for moving pigs of all sizes. Sometimes I’d feed them in it leading up to moving them. The would load themselves often.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Good idea. Jordan Green had a similar set up. Called the “Weaner Wagon”.

[@kylemac73]

Great laugh watching y'all wrangle them pigs -- thank you! Keep the videos coming -- I've learned good deal from y'all too, but that was straight-up good entertainment! Merry Xmas!

[@SheratonParkFarms]

😂😂. We were sure sweating it on our end! Thanks so much for watching. Merry Christmas to ya'll too.

I have two feeders that I can't trust behind an electric fence. It's annoying. They avoid the wire, but have learned to root up the post ! Which , of course, shorts out the wire. Sometimes up to 3 times a day. So they are permanently in a 16x16 ft lot which is just sad because I have 5 acres of heavy woods they could be enjoying life in.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Aw man. Hate to hear that. Sounds very frustrating. They would leave the bigger space of you could trust them. Thanks so much for watching

[@javierbetancourt9388]

💯

[@Maybe_Crazy05]

They look so small but man they’re strong and fast.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

No kidding. We were tired after that. Thanks for watching

[@RealAmericanReport]

I use to take and corner them then took an old towel and tossed over them to pick them up as long as they couldn't see anything they were calm.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Good idea. I’ve used a bucket for castration to keep them a little quieter.

[@NightfallHomestead]

If chasing them doesn’t work just let them come to you like puppies 😂 this is totally us 😂

[@dfishman76]

They can be fun to catch at that size. You don’t know just what your getting into until you grab their leg

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Exactly. They are really strong and heavier than they look. Thanks for watching

[@michaelgreen5335]

Love the content!

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Thanks. Appreciate y’all watching

[@CoastalGardening]

👍😎

[@armymobilityofficer9099]

What do you connect your ground wire too? It looks like it was connected to one of the posts. I enjoy the show.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Yes, I just clip it to one of the metal posts. If I’m running a solar energizer I clip it to the tpost the charger is hanging from.

[@KaleidoscopeJunkie]

Mark - at Bakers Green Acres - uses IBC totes to transport piglets. He cut a door on the side and drops a trap-door over it to keep them in - Then uses the bucket to lift with his tractor to pick the tote up. You could also put the tote on a piece of plywood and drag it behind the Kawasaki. -KJ kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6jCqHhsppeBhZo

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Oh that’s clever! I’ll check that out. Great idea! Thanks for watching

[@verncook1528]

You ever make any souse?

[@SheratonParkFarms]

No. Never have. We could for our own use but couldn’t sell it. Our processor has to make and label anything we sell to the public. Thanks for watching

[@disccop75]

another great video! Thank you for the content!! Small question - How do you like the Kawasaki side by side? Would you buy it again? What model is it? Thanks again!

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Love it. Most used tool in our farm. Would definitely buy again and have though about purchasing a second one. It’s the base 4x4 model. No frills but that’s all I need. Thanks for watching

[@toddcaskey9984]

What kind of waterer r u guys going to use? R u getting your piggies from Jordan?

[@SheratonParkFarms]

On these guys we are just using a pickle barrel with a drinker nipple. Am not. Getting them from A guy near Bristol VA that was in the farrow to finish school with me up at Jordan’s earlier this year.

[@matt15688]

I'd slow down a little on the boars. One boar can handle quite a few ladies.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate y’all watching

[@RosySideFarm]

Will that charger hold adult pigs?

[@SheratonParkFarms]

If they are trained on electric, yes. Will depend on how much fence you are trying to energize. We’ve left the energy off of fencing for a full day without issues. Appreciate y’all watching

[@RosySideFarm]

@@SheratonParkFarms thanks. My fear is I’m going to buy an inferior charger and have to go back and buy another one. Starting with a few pigs in the spring. Your videos have been great.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Go ahead and get a really good energizer. You’ll need it for more applications in the future I’m sure. Good investment in your farm.

[@acalciu]

Looks like that show: two idiots chasing pigs.

[@SheratonParkFarms]

Nice comment

[@DayTrader__]

You need to build you a little pen to tractor transport wagon! 😂
