Our Meishans

We have two unrelated pairs of Meishan pigs, and our goal is to be able to sell breeding pairs out of the offspring of each pair. Why Meishans?

Zelde and Musa

We bought Zelde, from Oddbird Farm in Northwestern Missouri.

Musa was born on May 3rd, 2023, also one of his dam's first litter. His dam also proved to be an exceptional mother and we are glad to be passing down those top notch mothering instincts that are so often lacking in commercial breeds. His dam is Imperial Myrtle, and sire is Meishan Preservation Piggy Smalls (2). Musa is also just over 60% USDA.

Musa was bred at Pig Wing Farm, who were the first to bring Meishans to Arizona.

Yolanda and Yorick

Yolanda's dam is Domystic Meifeng, the AMBA record holder for most piglets born in a litter- 22! She has also produced multiple litters of 19, making her a powerhouse producer in the Meishan world. She is also on the big side for Meishans at around 400 lbs. Yolanda's sire is Rill Haven Kai, one of the largest Meishan boars around, estimated at 500 lbs. Both are very gentle and easy to handle, even at their larger sizes- this is one of the ways Meishans truly shine, especially in a homesteading context!

Yorick has an equally impressive lineage. His dam is Meishan Preservation Gaia and his sire is Odd Bird Maui. Both Gaia and Maui are broad for the breed, with rounder shoulders and hams than are typically seen on Meishans. One of their offspring from a previous litter was raised for 4-H and reached an impressive 254 lbs in just 7 months! The Kune we harvested at 14 months weighed less! Feeding your pig for half the time and getting more meat? Yes, please!

We are confident that piglets from Yolanda and Yorick' litters are excellent offspring for both breeders and meat grow-outs.

Yolanda and Yorick were both bred by Elemental Acres in Oregon. We flew these awesome pigs here so that we can get these genetics producing in our herd and yours!

Yolanda and Yorick had their first litter in Autumn/Fall 2024.
