Hi ,I applied for a herd no in the last couple of weeks can anyone tell me how long the process takes?

Can I go ahead and order pigs in the knowledge that the number will be through by the time they are ready ?,on that note any one know of any weaners that will be for sale in the coming weeks ?.

We were thinkin of GOS but are open to any breed .

Hi and welcome .Having spoken to a few people over the past few weeks you may get an inspection from the Dept. of Agriculture before you receive your Herd no. There are Saddleback weaners for sale here locally.Whereabouts are you?

Thanks, I got a call from the Dvo this morning ,she will be out on
Monday morning to inspect our facilities so hopefully I will ok from then on .

We wanted to get movin and have pigs in and out before the winter,although last night you would wonder what season it is !.

I am in Birr Co Offaly I would be grateful for those contact details please . Thanks.

Hi I will pm you contact details.

Buy and sell also has a good list of weaners for sale under pig - farming. Do a bit of researchbefore you decide what pigs you want, are they for fattening or breeding?

Regards,
