Soon to be ... black market bacon?

I figured they were Duroc crosses with the big floppy ears and the build they have. We have had really good luck with Duroc crosses, we have three in our freezer right now as a matter of fact. We didn't do any this year because the market for weiner pigs was almost as bad as going to the lumber yard.
We always kept a Duroc boar and Hampshire sows; made good bacon. The Hampshires were a more docile hog and took good care of their pigs whereas the Duroc sows were more prone to lie on their young if in tight quarters. Glad those days are over!
