It was a Yorkshire Sale for the record books. The Hoge Family’s class-winning boar shattered the Purebred Boar Sale Record, when he sold to Genetic Edge and Reynolds Farms, Ohio, for $270,000. He’s an Out of Control x Drive By.
Excitement surrounded the Steve Cobb & Family Yorkshire boar entry before he had even arrived in the barn. Their Untouchable son went on to be the Reserve Champion Yorkshire Boar and the first record-breaker of the day. He sold to Lean Value Sires, Ohio for $230,000.
The Norman Brothers & Son brought a powerful set of Yorkshires to Louisville. Their top-seller brought $145,000 and has a new home with Shipley Swine Genetics, Ohio. His pedigree read Foot Print x Shakin’ Hands.
RW Genetics brought their stout class-winner from Texas to bring $130,000. Premium Blend Genetics, Ind., invested in this Slow Ride son.
