No wild sow has ever produced more than 10 pigs a year but will reliably produce exactly that.


Are you saying they'll produce 5 on average across the board?......I know around here its not uncommon to see sows with pretty big litters.....


I’m saying for an absolute fact that wild sows will have 5 per litter twice a year period

Tame sows turned loose might have a larger litter once or twice but they’ll stop after awhile. Lots of weaning size pigs traveling with one sow isn’t uncommon but litters larger than five don’t happen.
