Our slogan
Happy Pigs: a Healthy Concept is the slogan of our approach. That is really what our pigs are. Our pigs have all freedom and possibilities to be happy.
The characteristics of Happy Pigs
-
The pigs kept their tail (in conventional pig husbandry their tail is cut off to prevent tail baiting because of stress)
-
The pigs kept their teeth
-
The pigs are super healthy and do not get any antibiotics
-
The pigs live in straw
-
The pigs can walk around whole day, both inside and outside
-
The pigs have so much area that they can separate themselves from the group
-
The pigs can be outside in the shadow of the trees to enjoy a fantastic sleep
-
The pigs can play outside in a mud pool
-
The pigs can sleep under a nice warm bed of straw (if it is cold, the pigs dig themselves in the warm straw together with their brothers and sisters)
-
The pigs get own-made feed, nothing is bought from feed factory. The feed is GMO-free, all cereals are from own fields and no soya is used
-
The pigs all eat together
In summary, our pigs are really Happy Pigs.
Of course these pigs are also kept for their meat, and there comes a time they have to be slaughtered. But these pigs got a respectful and very good life. This results in a honest piece of meat, from high quality and special taste. A healthy piece of meat, completely produced without antibiotics.
