The NEW PIGLETS Have Arrived! Expanding our Idaho Pasture Pig Herd!

[@erinb.5103]

Duck Creek Pastures- wow , it’s nice to see younger generations starting to restore our country with care and value, just like yourselves. Love this. God bless all of you.

[@Dobviews]

Apparently your pigs are the best in town. Great job on rearing them.

I love how Sarah has all these inspirational t-shirts and Kevin gives us pig and chicken butts. 🤣

Balance ⚖ in all.things

[@pamelawiggins9131]

OMG Charlie's butt scratch was sooo cute.😂❤️

[@Iflie]

Aw that was so cute, you know they are different when they did not scream their heads off all the way being carried. And I guess they were very hot and the wallow was very welcome but they also didn't even check for danger, so relaxed.

[@carinshaffer5980]

I thought it was funny too... he put them down, and they went straight for it! They were like, "yeah, mud!"

[@Iflie]

@@carinshaffer5980 And one stuck it's nose all the way under and was blowing bubbles, not a care in the world beyond having a nice cooldown.

[@willowsverge3046]

Absolutely adorable! How can you not love this breed of pig?!

[@sandispyres4704]

Living traditions you tube is the best educational you tube in all aspects of becoming self sufficient. This channel covers canning freeze drying every thing You deserve some type of an award .,This is the go to channel

[@WalkScripture]

I learned more in 3 minutes of Kayla talking than I ever knew about pigs in general!

[@deejayg1632]

So did I!

[@wordvendor1]

She was great! You could see her excitement. I'd say IPPs have an advocate for life!!

[@leannekenyoung]

Me too! I think she’s an excellent representative for the breed! She’s very well spoken and she’s absolutely right when she says what to look for and it starts at the feet. Also for a city gal that will never probably have a homestead or farm I thought it was very insightful to look at the pig from the point of view of eating! I mean it just makes sense when you think about it and I’m sure our ancestors just knew that instinctively but our generation have become sooo disconnected from our food that we don’t know to look at that. I think with Kayla working with this IPP breed they will go a long way into growing it and it will prosper. Also Kevin and Sara really seem to me to be researchers and would have looked into every aspect of having pigs and which ones would be right for them. I thought it was interesting when Kevin said about not taking on a pig because he seems sick or not doing well in hopes you can make it better. I haven’t seen them on very much and I wondered what had become of their pigs the last time I remember seeing them they had them in pens right by the barn and had Mildred and Murdle who they tried to get pregnant and one just never would, I think it went somewhere else and they had one pig that was skittish I’m not sure if that was Ginger or not but if it was she sure got a lot larger!!

[@MrRbrgrn]

Wow we can see why you picked them to get your pigs! She definitely enjoys what she does (him too) and the knowledge is unbelievable

[@thatlittlefarminthecountry2632]

Cayla and Mitch are 2 of the best and most knowledgeable IPP breeders in the country! seriously!

[@cathyversteeg3051]

I love how you talk to your animals. I do the same, even to the birds and bugs in my garden. The neighbors must think I'm nuts!

[@wordvendor1]

Me too!

[@leannekenyoung]

I’d rather be nutty that way then any other! Lol! I’m always encouraging my garden to grow mind you mine is indoors so it’s only my family that thinks I’m weird. 🥰🙏🏻🇨🇦

[@pamelaremme38]

You guys are sooooo good to your animals. I just love you guys! Not many homesteaders realize the extreme importance of a wallow for pigs. They do not sweat that is how they cool off. They love mud because it protects them from the insects. Thank you for all of your teachings Living Traditions Homestead. For animals and canning the best at explaining everything you show. I am from Wisconsin and I will have to check these guys out.

[@lovetohuntlovetohunt6241]

Even though we garden/can/freeze & have been around farm animals throughout the years, + deer hunting..., I certainly love watching you both working together in all aspects of living a more happy & healthy life. More humans should get in the know❣

[@christygabany7395]

First... Kevin's shirt is the best!! It cracked me up.... Kevin and Mitch look like they could be brothers or cousins. The piglets are adorable. Thank you for sharing your homesteading journey with us. 😊

[@swianecki]

What fun watching the piglets! Charlie and the other girls made me laugh right out loud. If I could raise any kind of animals, it would be IPP’s. You can tell how knowledgeable the breeders are too. The piglets will be raised with love and care on your farm as are all of your animals. God Bless you all.

[@lhodgens]

Charlie's wiggles when he is getting back scratches are the cutest thing!

[@michellewilson7868]

I would like to see a caretaking video about these pigs...health and wellness, sick pig issues and remedies...you know all the stuff that could go wrong.

[@jamjar5716]

Michelle, Kevin and Sarah are really great at showing us all aspects of life on a farm! Stay tuned!

[@sachinbhosale7144]

Wow, what a passion these breeders are having, this IPP breed is having great future.

[@living6a916]

It brought good morning tears to my eyes, when I saw those piglets go right to the wallow. Love you guys !

[@lisareaume3857]

I am glad you guys have expanded so much this last year! AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

[@archeanna1425]

Pigs have strong opinions and to see them willing to be picked up and carried - by a stranger!! - Wow!! Talk about temperament!! That will make your life so much easier. So happy for you.

[@robynmize4713]

Your new pigs.... wallowing and blowing bubbles... under the water... equals = Happy Pigs. I so enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing Kevin and Sarah. Go IPP!

[@sandrafinney535]

Love the new addition to the family! Charliie's rocking body movements when you scratched him was my favorite part. If you took that segment of video and put it out on social media, everyone would love seeing it.

[@dianapollex3266]

Kevin you brought a smile to my face when you were scratching Charlie. Saying he's really a big baby. You really love all your animals, but the pigs seem special. God bless 💖

[@elizabethlink3993]

How fun to get the new pigs! IPPs, I just learned a lot from that young couple. How wonderful they are!

[@SageandStoneHomestead]

We love our kunekune! Just as gentle and lovable.

[@jwpols6886]

It's really nice to see people that are so enthusiastic about a breed!

[@linden5576]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I don’t know why I like pigs so much, maybe because I have pugs!!🤣🤣 The good all days of being raised on a farm! I remember jumping in the pigpen, Porky and petunia! We would jump on their back and they would run all around the pen!!🤣🤣 👍 you guys do a great job on your Homestead I love your videos thank you so much for sharing, God bless you🙏😊

[@lorrainebarnes4633]

Charlie is a big ham- no pun intended lol. Really enjoyed seeing all the pigs and their activities

It is good to have young people involved in farmings,thing are looking up 🆙.

[@imari2305]

The new Idaho pigs are cute. I can't believe how big Dolly and Ginger have gotten! I'm excited to see Myrtle's new litter when it's time for them to be born.

[@lat1419]

It's great seeing the girls lovely piggly behaviour, living it up. Other homesteader channels seem to be set on trying to feed their pigs as little as possible, in a small area possible, without any quality of life. I think your pigs have a great natural life.

[@dayneholt4149]

What a lovely young couple. Duck Creek Pastures, we will remember that name. Love seeing the piggies, specially the new girls. Blessings.

[@nw7408]

Good morning. Great video! Thank you to Mitch and Kayla for their dedication to this breed.You can tell that they love what they do. I wish them the best of luck. I look forward to watching the new piglets grow. Have a great day. God bless.

Bacon is nature's most nearly perfect food. The IPPs really do have a fun personality, thanks for a cool vid.

[@lindalockhart1266]

Do the Kune Kunes get bigger than IPPs? Why did you choose them? Thanks

[@kcs.farm09]

@@lindalockhart1266 to be honest they are about the same! We just picked a heritage breed for our homestead and we have someone local here breeding them. They do take a couple months longer to get to full grown size compared to the IPP but for us that didn't matter.

[@lindalockhart1266]

@@kcs.farm09 thanks for responding!

We also raise KuneKunes. They are so sweet even our 6 yr old can pet and scratch them. The second you start scratching a Kunekune they roll over to get their bellies scratched just like a dog! Lovely temperments.

I remember visiting my grandparents in Missouri. We had run of the place, except her chicken yard because we scared the hens and she sold eggs and the hogs pens. I just remember being told they would eat you! Needless to say we didn't get very close.

And they don’t mind being touched. I hope you will be able to visit Duck Creek and do some videoing. Your new pen for them is really nice. So happy for y’all! 😊👍 ~Sharon

[@greenthicketfarm]

We’ve raised several other breeds and beyond how great they are on our pastures that’s definitely one of folks main comments when they pick up piglets from us that have also raised other breeds is how chill IPPs are when they are picked up and carried 😂!

[@CrossPatchDi]

Kevin, I love the t-shirts you always wear with funny sayings on them. The pigs are so good-natured and I loved watching them in the walllow.

[@GimiH1]

I learned a lesson about giving veggies out of the garden to a cow today. I was picking okra and tomatoes, trimming leaves and cleaning up. Our 14 month old Charolais bull was walking along the cattle panel fence, getting snacks. I just made sure everything made it across the fence, petted him a few minutes and came in to cool off. Boy was I surprised to find that he decided that he wasn't finished. He had pushed over the top of a cattle panel and eaten the top out of several plants. They look like someone used a hedge trimmer. I think they'll recover but he learned a bad habit. I've built an ugly obstacle course to keep him away from the garden when he's in that pasture. He's a big baby and never challenges fences but evidently he NEEDED more okra.

[@camperjack2620]

Sounds like he might need to learn what an electric fence is all about.

Oh dear, he just wanted more candy! Hope your garden recovers! 👍

@@camperjack2620 We have one but he's never needed it. He's gentle and pretty good. Evidently he thought I forgot to finish cleaning up the okra. He topped 4 plants and hasn't been back since I scolded him. If he does we'll string up a surprise.

@@carlinkay1151 It's still growing and putting out new leaves. It was only 3 plants out of 40 so no serious harm. I was annoyed but had to laugh. This time of the year I could cut it twice a day. I freeze dry the extra for winter and I guess he thought I had too much.
