Hampshire records were shattered minutes ago at the Summer Type Conference Sale in Louisville, Ky.,as the National Swine Registry sold an all-time record priced Hampshire boar, owned by Cailyn and Payton Hines of Quincy, Mich.
Sired by EBM8 Huggy Bear 9-7 on a EC5 The Beast 97-2 dam, the Grand Champion Hampshire boar and Class 3 winner soared to a final gavel call of $205,000. It was purchased by Lean Value Sires of New Carlisle, Ohio, and Sharrett Family Farms of Sabina, Ohio.

The gilt will sell tomorrow morning, July 3, before the Hampshire sale during the National Swine Registry Summer Type Conference sale.
