Tiger King has been a special pig from the start and one that we raised in partnership with Maxwell family. Greg Thompson bought into this boar at a young age. We knew we were keeping him not only from a quality standpoint but a pedigree we know wins. Tiger King is sired by the late Lion King which was the Cain High Alert son that we lost after 2 seasons. Mother is the Grand Overall Gilt from the 2018 NJSS. Grandmother is the Maxwell foundation female that we got them from Knights and has done big things for the breed.
Tiger King is one good looking hog that is the perfect blend of balance with enough power. He is tall fronted, extended about his neck, and level made with a loose hip and hind leg. Great set and angle up front, comes and goes square with perfect pastern set and heavy boned. We think that this guy combines the stoutness and ruggedness of sire and the design and build of the sow line. We feel that his offspring will be as big of a hit as the Netflix show TIGER KING!!!! |
