Point Taken was our boar pick at the 2018 Indiana State Fair after we prematurely lost The Director. Sometimes things happen for a reason, and we don’t understand why…point taken! Point Taken was sired by Take That and his mom has been a tremendous generator (Ms Bison – see pic). We appreciated Point Taken for his impeccable structure, pointed head and extended neck, level top and elite profile. He was the youngest boar at the Indiana State Fair, and he caught the eye of many. We appreciated his growth of 1.65 ADG, and we see him making elite barrows and gilts.

Keep Talkin’ 12-1 is the new hottest boar in the Berkshire breed. This guy is extremely correct in his design and will produce stylish Berkshires.

Wheels Up 1-9 is a new genetic cross for the Berkshire breed. We appreciate the power and stoutness he delivers in a STYLISH and SLEEK DESIGNED profile. This guy is tall-fronted, bold-bladed and high in his head carriage coming at you. He is square on his big boned feet and legs. He is so good in his bone work and has tremendous stride length. We love the look of this guy going away from you. This guy has us excited as he is the first litter out of a Mount-N-Do x Who Knows What sow from Russell Kneese. She had 13 live pigs in her first litter. Combine her with King Indy and this guy could generate some stylish females with excellent feet and legs.
