In episode 91, we chat about the time of year to harvest pigs, the Mangalitza pig breed, our longhorn escapade, fast vs. slow stitch animals, and extraneous livestock. 

In episode 92, we chat about affection for extraneous livestock, raising longhorns for our classes, how temperament is the most important thing with cows, harvesting a cow out of a ditch, culling fencing jumping cows (and their horns), and Wallace’s Three Hearts Pilgrimage.
