We run 20 Hampshire sows for show seedstock production. The herd ties the best of Prairieland Genetics with a large influence of
Huggy Bear genetics in a competitive showring look. We are offering the top showring prospects from our August farrowing. We believe in making better seedstock that doesn’t just follow fads.

Birchmeier Show Hogs is operated by Ernie Birchmeier and focuses on producing competitive show pigs and breeding stock. We have been fortunate to have class winners at the NJSA Summer Spectacular six years in a row, including the Reserve Champion Duroc Gilt. Over the years we have produced hundreds of county and state fair champions, including at the Michigan State Fair and the Ohio State Fair. Our Durocs have dominated the Duroc show at the Scarlet and Gray in Ohio. The pigs consigned to the Northern Exposure Sale are littermate Durocs. They are sired by Yak II at Shipley Swine Genetics, their mother is a Tug and a littermate to the Champion Duroc Boar at the 2009 Summer Type Conference.
