I went to one of those rice mills with my brother in-law once. Our bike was stacked up with sacks of rice for processing, those bikes take a beating. Great vid Alan keep them coming.

[@alan4x]

thanks stu, yeah very interesting to see and love all the bikes out here, hardly saw any bikes in the uk, wonder if they are dying out

[@tazio2]

Khen is a lovely lady , hope the pigs are very profitable for her

Vlogers make business cards and give them. No miss spelling etc . I don't eat meat but understand PH do things differently you won't change them. If it works then why change it. Keep up the good work.

[@alan4x]

cheers Geoff, yeah very true, its a strange world out here😁

[@chasmcl42]

I was in awe at what i,m guessing was about 300kg in that sidecar, then the guy came into shot on the solo motorbike with the wooden? sticks all strapped onto his bike.

Don't think I could live like you fo over there. Hats of to all

[@Arachnoid_of_the_underverse]

This is the reality of marketing live animals ,given some of the comments it looks like the nearest some people have come to real animal meats is at the supermarket. As the old saying goes " everything gets eaten except the squeak". Did Khen work out if she had made a profit after fattening up the pigs?

[@alan4x]

cheers andi, she gets paid at market value per kg but a lot of money has gone into setting up and feeding the pigs for months so it will be a long time yet and many more sales before a profit shows

[@georgeclarke1183]

poor pigs they could be your pets

[@alan4x]

expensive pets😁

[@georgeclarke1183]

@@alan4x obviously the costs for feeding will take a large chunk of the profit

[@alan4x]

ohh yes, the sale of duck eggs is supplementing the pigs at the moment

[@chucky2316]

It's a farm George not a charity shop, the pigs are feeding the human beings of the Philippines

[@foreignermakingmoney-phili1458]

Its amazing how many gas stations are being built there, they keep springing up but in UK the independants are going out of business and its being monopolized.

[@foreignermakingmoney-phili1458]

by the super markets

[@alan4x]

thank god its the opposite over here where mom and pop can run a business without corporations pushing them out

[@foreignermakingmoney-phili1458]

The fully serviced fuel/ gas station felt weird after years of filling up your car in the west. Labour is cheap there and they are worried about theft. UK labour is expensive and got CCTV linked to DVLA if you do a runner.

[@alan4x]

I prefer it here and its good for employment😊

[@foreignermakingmoney-phili1458]

how is your you tube channel going? is it doing as well as you hoped in ph.

[@Lisa-Andy]

with petrol at 95p per litre ther is no way they will be moving to silly electric cars (never mind the batery temperature problems) as you are mechanicaly minded. What fun / improvement ideas do you have for the house & farm. even with plenty of sun, is solar used much ???

[@alan4x]

when there is enough rain it will be to fix the water supply to the house😊

[@chucky2316]

It is what it is alan im just suprised you dont have fatteners and dealers like we have in the uk

[@alan4x]

she does feed them foods that make them grow quicker but rather than the pigs being fatty they have more meat

[@chucky2316]

​@@alan4xsaves you taking the live stock down the slaughter house alan so you can get on with jobs on the farm. But I guess for a couple of animals probably not worth it

[@chucky2316]

Pigs eat anything why is khen buying rice unless as its a extra feed , so nuts in the Philippines but you have to love them

[@khennahsfarm2610]

I dont buy commercial feeds...i feed them organic, so i know they are healthier for consumption

[@chucky2316]

​​@khennahsfarm2610 alan should have enough bacon to last 6 months, don't you feed them scraps and fruit.they quite happily eat anything pigs. We have a saying in england alan will know it. Greedy as a pig

[@neilobusk]

Not had a bacon butty for years...... just saying.. How does all the meat stay fresh...out in the sun..... Try get that A.C fixed on the scooby... and a vid.... hug For Ken and alan.. N x

[@alan4x]

I don't actually know, will have to ask about that, I know fish are stored on ice

[@foreignermakingmoney-phili1458]

pigs are a risky but popular business in ph.

[@alan4x]

you certainly need a bit of capital to keep it afloat

[@foreignermakingmoney-phili1458]

In that area the Don Carlos slaughter house is next to the bus terminal

[@alan4x]

nice🤣

[@jbbumpkin]

I bet they don`t mess about with that E5 and E10 gnats p*ss!

[@alan4x]

they have regular 95 Ron petrol and a lower grade I think 91 Ron for older vehicles I guess thats all I have seen apart from regular diesel

Is the aim to sell at lechon weight?

no its a case of sell whatever the buyer wants
