Zeke is over 6 feet long and weighs close to 1000 pounds. He’s a massive boy that we jokingly call “the Limousine.” His ears have a cute forward tilt that resembles a beret. He’s a shy, gentle pig, like most of the huge production breeds. Zeke’s home is the house on Solsbury Hill where he lives with his brothers Aberdeen and Ezra. His favorite pastime is early morning swamping followed by a nap with his family.

The North Carolina Boys

The “North Carolina Boys” were a group of very rare survivors from the flooding of Hurricane Florence in 2018. When the Category 4 storm caused torrential rain and flooding, factory farmed pigs were locked in the barns to drown. These boys were swept out of their prisons by the flood waters, and eleven of them were sent to live here in Tennessee. Factory farmed males are typically slaughtered at 250-300 pounds, but our boys have been allowed to grow into their full maturity, which now has them all over 700 pounds. The largest of them is Eli, who is 960 pounds.
