2.0 out of 5 stars The Kindergarten Pig Book, February 10, 2007
This review is from: Raising Pigs Successfully (Paperback)
I just wasn't impressed with the detail of this book. Unless you know NOTHING of raising pigs, don't buy this one. The "Storey's Guide to Pigs" by Kelly Klober was much more informative, buy it. Sorry.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not very successful, May 10, 2009
By karenbrat1 "karenbrat1" (Inland Northwest, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Raising Pigs Successfully (Paperback)
Unlike the title, this book is actually quite discouraging about raising pigs -- that is, breeding your own in your backyard. I gather the authors raised their own litter ONCE and decided it was so much trouble they never did it again. It's also rather dated at 24 years old.

I'm going to buy the Storey Guide to Pigs, and Small Scale Pig Raising (OOP but many used available), and hope they are a better help. Meanwhile I have learned a lot from Yahoo e-groups Homestead Hogs message board, and Walter Jeffries' blog at sugarmtnfarm.com.

5.0 out of 5 stars You won't feel like a HOG on Ice with this one!, February 9, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Raising Pigs Successfully (Paperback)
Kathy and Bob make it easy for anyone to understand the fine art of raising your own pigs for the dining pleasure of your family. An especially good book for those that plan on having a sustainable food source in times of disruption, such as Year 2000 grocery disruptions, an extended illness, layoffs, recession, depression, etc. This book will help you understand that you too can raise your own oinker for hard times. It's a CAN DO kind of book.

I found this book comprehensive and understandable to a novice to this undertaking. I was a clean slate and it helped fill in a lot of the blank space. Read more

I purchased this book and love it. I go back to read it when I have forgot something. I love the story about the boar that ran away from home to come back to Ms. Piggy. Read more
