Culvercreek hunt club Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Well I know many of the Ny sightings are originating from preserves....I don't know of any around Marion. This is a lot closer to me than I care to see. http://www.thetimesofwaynecounty.com/community/marion-hunter-bags-feral-hog/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burmjohn Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 Wonder if there have been any other reports this year we have missed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggamefish Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 We really should see a pickup of sighting when gun starts. That is if we have a few of them in the state. Should be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reports and taking of them in different areas of the state have been increasing and expanding every year for the last few years. There were threads and articles about them being taken last year.

Buckfever85 Posted November 7, 2011 Share Posted November 7, 2011 An estimated live weight of 300 lbs and just under a year old!!!! Thats pretty wild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Culvercreek hunt club Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 I wondered the same thing!! I really wonder how good our regional folks are at aging pigs...lol. Luckily they haven't had too much experience in it. And I hope they don't get good at it for a long time. A few of the farms I was on had pigs but I can't remember a 1 year old ever getting to 300 pounds and they had a lot better eating that a wild one I am sure. Any of you guys raise them and seen them get to that weight in a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantail Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) I think one of the reasons pigs wern't here sooner is because of the no feeder rules in NY. Edited November 8, 2011 by Fantail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
growalot Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Yes we raised pigs for several years while the kids were in 4-H and yes a pig under a year old ...domestic...can reach 300 when well fed...infact we tried hard not to get them that big because of showing.......I worked in Marion years ago and if I remember there were a lot of ag crops....corn out that way back then...I can see a hog that big at a year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
