Dec 5, 2009: Flying Pig

[Sundae]

Ahem.
I did not eat that delicious furry pig, and I am not currently chewing on delicious Hungarian ribs...

No idea to be fair.
But it's identified as Hungarian and is obviously not being bred commercially, so I just thought I'd try on a little Daily Mail style jingoism for fun.

ETA - nope, they are imports.
From here:

Mangalitza Pigs were imported into the UK for the first time in 2006 by Tony York of Pig Paradise. A total of seventeen pigs were imported, three boars (one of each colour) and fourteen females.

We own two of the original imported females, one blonde and one red. We had our first litter of red piglets in November 2006. Our intentions are to try and keep the colours true, but this is proving difficult with only three original boars introduced to the UK, with one if Scotland, one in Wales and the other in Northern England. We are hoping in the future that more blood lines will be introduced to the UK.
