RE: 12 Ideas On How I Will Make An Income From Homesteading

Thanks. Yes, unless you can do it yourself, you've got to get them to where they need to go. I am lucky in my neck of the woods to have several options, although they will cost more. Deer processing is pretty big business in Arkansas and lots of people still raise their own livestock, so I've got a mobile butcher option, or a butcher that will pick them up. Its nothing like here in Illinois, thankfully. Ideally I'll have access to a relative's flatbed trailer to take them in, but I'll have to figure out a cage/pen for that, and hope the pigs are hungry enough to want to go on it. If not, I'm glad to have the other options also.

But now I'm picturing how many pigs you could fit in the back of a mini-van, and what one would have to do to get pigs in a mini-van. :)
