I just wanted to thank Brian and Dot Jordan for putting on a great meeting...for getting the carding system done so that we have the tools to chose our animals wisely, and mostly for all of the service that they have given to the RW breed. I really appreciate all of the thankless hours that you, Dot especially, have put in behind the scenes.
For those of you who missed the meeting...you missed a great one!

I'm a newbie to pigs and the Red Wattles, can you tell me what a "card system" is?

Thanks.

Contact Kathy Bottorf, the RWHA secretary, you can find her in the RWP members list. Ask her to send you the owners manual and breed selection guide.

Card grading is a tool to help you can use to select for the best breeding stock. It is simple to use for both experienced breeders and beginners. Of course the more you use it and the more you are around hogs the better you will get at selecting the best of the best and knowing when to eat the rest.
