Black Valley Farm is now on Facebook!

We will now be expecting litters on the ground beginning February 5th.  Combinations will be Andrew/Wilsons Gina, Andrew/Rona, Tonganui/Jenny, Tutaki/Jenny and Boris/Jenny... We will also begin spring breedings for Boris/Rona, Tutaki/Jenny, Andrew/Rebecca Gina, and Mahia Love/Rona litters.  Litters should arrive February-October.  We are beginning to hold deposits on these 2012 litters.

Litters planned for 2012 will include our three new boar lines--Boris, Mahia Love and Tutaki--which will be bred to excellent gilts that we have purchased or retained from our own breedings--Rona, Wilsons Gina, Rebecca Gina, and Jenny.  Due to the amount of interest in these lines we have decided to begin holding deposits at this time.  Farrowing of these litters will begin February 5th...

****We would like to remind everyone that piglets are expected to be picked up upon weaning at nine weeks of age.  If you are unable to do so we are willing to hold them for you.  To help compensate the extra cost, Black Valley Farm will require a $25.00/week boarding fee unless otherwise arranged.****

February 5th  Litter

 <Darby, our newest gilt to arrive at Black Valley Farm, was purchased specifically to be paired with our Boris and Tutaki boars.  She has excellent conformation, is double wattled, and posesses the docile  personality we prize most in our herd. Since we could not decide which boar would be the better pairing with this special gilt we placed her with both boars and let them decide.  Piglets will of course be DNA tested for proof of parentage.  We are anxiously anticipating the arrival of these piglets.

March 8th Litter

<Ramona has proven herself as an excellent mother of top quality piglets.  Her litters remain small contributing to the length of the waiting list for her avialable offspring.  Her litters have thus far been gilt heavy and exclusively double wattled.  We have again paired her with Cornelius, our Andrew boar, with expectations to duplicate the results of her previous litter. We could not ask for better examples of the Kunekune breed either genetically or conformationally.  

April 10th Litter

<Agnes, our black and white double wattled Jenny sow, has  been bred to our Tutaki boar.  This is our first pairing of completely infatuated Kunekunes.  Agnes and Clarence are in LOVE!  This will be our first litter sired by Clarence and we are looking forward to producing piglets out of his unique bloodlines combined with the excellence of Agnes' representation of the breed. 

April ? Litter

<Matilda, our ginger and black Jenny sow, has been bred for the third and last time to our Tutaki boar Wendell.  These two Kunekunes have produced breeding stock for breeding programs in Ohio, New York, and Missiouri.  We have had the opportunity to observe their offspring into maturity and are very pleased with the results. 

Deposits of $250.00 are being accepted.

We will be posting all upcoming litters here. 

Please call or e-mail for more information about reserving a piglet from any of our litters.  We are confident that the KuneKune is a fantastic addition to any family, hobby farm, orchard, or animal enthusiast!!
