When I went out to check last night least 1/2 dozen bros and sis's were camped out around wayward siblings. But I had strict instructions from war dept not to bring home dead pigs at midnight! No sense of humor!!!

Yeah Tom!!! These are the perfect size. Son is on his way with trailer. He's gonna pin em and feed em out a bit. To me these are the most delicious. And well fit into my killing catagory. "Small enough to pick up with one hand!"
I know there are lots of folks that don't care for them. And won't mess with them. And that's fine. But I don't have any issue with eating them.

Kaywoodie, we quit trapping pigs about a month ago, couldn't get anyone to to take them anymore, still shoot a few every week just for the hell of it and put them on my bait pile for coyotes, works great.rio7

Bob we killed a bunch of them while there last month, including a number of piglets(really yummy!) The rest were all about 70-80 pound 'eaters'. No complaints on any of them yet!

Mike, I'm sure you're familiar with this inspiring "goldie oldie".
Well it's kinda like that.
I take a bag of 15 bean soup mix. Blanch my beans, drain and add water, a couple cans of tomato sauce, a can of Rotel Tomatos and green chilis, some red and green bell pepper for color and taste, a couple chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, some poblano pepper, cumin pwder, chili powder, chopped garlic, chopped onion, fresh cilantro. add smoked venison sausage and most of a package of ham chunks. Put in the crock-pot on low about 9 PM. Around 7 AM next morning you turn off the heat and let them set for a couple hours. Accompany with a generous slab of butter slathered cornbread and you're ready to go. Usually about six hours or less after consuming two or three bowls, the spiders start coming out of the wood-work and start barking.

Oh yeah, I know that one!
That sounds pretty good, but I think you need more pepper. Ha!

I do, just didn't mention it in that recitation........
Perhaps you've heard the story about three convicts that escape from a p-farm work gang in the Louisiana bayou country. Black guy, white guy and a Messican guy. Well they come to a pretty good size river to cross. Unbeknownst to them there are three aligators sunning themselves on the opposite bank just waiting for a meal. Well the white guy sez, I ain't waitin on ya'll and jumps in and starts swimming. He makes it half way across when the first aligator takes him down. In the distance the other two can hear the hounds. Well the black guy sez, I'll take my chances they don't like dark meat and jumps in and begins to swim. He makes it about 3/4 of the way across whe the second aligator takes him under. That leaves only the Messican to cross. The hounds are getting closer so he jumps in and swims for his life. He makes it all the way across, climbs out and starts running. The two gators come back up on shore and on remarks to the third gator, "Harry, what gives, you ain't had a meal in a couple days". Harry sez. "I ate one of those pepper bellies a week ago and my azzz is still burning".....
I'm figuring that concoction would light me up for a week myself.

Five more last night. I think this is just about all of the terror sounder of the neighborhood. Haven't seen the big boar. I imagine he's pretty trap wise!
Son and I have a mans work ahead of us this day. Knives are sharp and coolers are ready!

Perfect size to roast on a spit whole! That's my little brothers favorite way to cook those little fellows. Smoke em all night over Mesquite coals and they just melt in your mouth. They are finger licking good, too. Slow cook a big ole pot of Pinto beans all night and bake some homemade cornbread with lots of butter and it don't get much better.
