PLease think about this, what you do, is yours to do. But your constanding telling others its OK, is where the problem i.

Also your name calling(Of course, you may get blamed by the insecure that frequent these boards, telling you that you are doing it all wrong,. Sir, its not my or Greggs animals that are slow and picky. Its yours and others, so insecurity is all about you and your name calling. I constantly remind you, its about the animals. Which means, its not about you or anyone personally. I constantly mention husbandry, not individual people.

The problem is you are setting what is normal or acceptable, and not the animals. An example is, your hog becoming sexually mature in two years. Which is find and dandy, with the possible exception that both in nature and in captivity, males become sexually mature in 8 months(or less) and commonly. (as shown above)

So what your offering as normal, is only normal or good for you. And please, if your happy, great. Why do you go on and on that folks have to think what your doing is "normal"

The reality is, these animals have a range of potential. Your growth reflects the lower reaches of that potential.

There are other methods that allow animals to reach the upper ranges potential.

Whats interesting to me is, nature has droughts, floods, shorages predators, and more, in captivity, those things are avoidable. Yet your male is four times slower then the hogs I am watching in nature. Sir, that is telling.

Lastly, Gregg nor I, have never told you, YOU DISCERN have to change your ways. You don't have to, we never said you have to.
I cannot speak for Gregg, but I can care less how you keep your animals. But the constant preaching to others that your right, is very odd. Two years for a male hog is way less then normal. Best of luck
