• You don’t have to look very far to find Never Before on the bottom side of a pedigree. We don’t have very many and this one, mated this way is one we really should be keeping. • The KMS sow on the bottom side is a maternal sister to the Grand Barrow at ‘18 National Western and his sister, the mother of Kingpin. • Her daughter sired by Hidden Treasure sells as Lot 213 (30-11). • We are still very bullish on Anthem as a sire and the crates around here are already very populated with Anthem-sired pigs. We’ve learned a lot about his tendencies and if you painted a picture of the perfect sow for him, she’d look awfully close to 221-12. She sells bred to ANTHEM .
• We bought this one from our good friends at C&C Showpigs when they offered her in the Fall Showcase a couple falls ago. She wasn’t fluffy, but her look, build and maturity looked ideal. • A few months later, she instantly became a little more famous when her sister was the Bronze Commercial Gilt at ‘21 OYE. That gilt sold to Team Sloan and produced the Grand Barrow at ‘22 WI State Fair • We’ve retained daughters from her first litter sired by JoJo and her recent litter sired by For the Good. • We used Disciple across a wide range of sows in the early going and he consistently very good on Kingpin daughters. She’s young and poised for success carrying a litter sired by THE DISCIPLE .
