Duroc Pigs for Sale Highlights

  • Pigs for Meat Production: Pigs are a popular choice for meat production due to their rapid growth rate and efficient feed conversion. They can reach market weight within 5-6 months.
  • Breeding and Gestation: Sows typically have a gestation period of about 114 days (3 months, 3 weeks, 3 days). They can farrow multiple litters per year, making them highly productive.
