|
|
I was wondering , what peoples view were on the age limit of 12weeks & 400grs for selling cavies at shows I think it is to old as mine settle better in to new homes at 8 weeks, if i wanted a boar then It would be harder to introduce it to an adult at 12 weeks. the ruling seems to be coming from higher places, I think it is unfair.  |

| I agree with you Essie, I think 12 weeks is too old. Most of mine go between 6-8 weeks depending on the weight of them. I think it will reduce the number of pigs for sale at shows as people will sell them privately. |
