Headed home from the range just now, thought I'd check one of the pastures.  Sure enough, about 20+ pigs. When I shot this one the scattered... but due to cattle in the pasture, I won't shoot at running pigs and risk hitting a cow. I'd like to hang a feeder in this area but the cows would scoop it all up.

Good job Op. We use electric fences the pigs can go under to get to the feeders and traps.

Nice!!!  That looks like a pretty good sized hog.  How much do you think it weighs?

Pic makes him look bigger... I'd say he was about 80 pounds.

Maybe try some pig pipes, or better yet a roller barrel. I got tired of trying to keep the pipes filled and put out a barrel with about 90 lbs of corn in it. Just don't drill too many holes in it and it will last a while. Good luck!
