GOS Breeding Advice Brought To You At The Request of Jenny Blaney Home of THE PIG PLACE
Gloucestershire Old Spots Breeding Advice. January, 2019 D. P. Sponenberg The Gloucestershire Old Spots hog breed is a relatively recent addition to the genetic resources of the USA.

Our Pure UK Christmas Star had a litter of 13 live piglets yesterday October 29, 2021. This is her 3rd litter and she is an amazing mom. Here are a few picks. We named her Christmas Star because she was born on Christmas Day. The site is our Pure Bred UK Gerald.
Thems some future purses there. Beauty! #needrecipes

USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service and the Canadian Food Inspection Agency have developed a protocol to help ensure bilateral trade will continue if African swine fever is detected in feral swine in either country, while still absent from domestic swine.
Another litter today from our UK 2nd generation Dahlia gilt. She has 7 beautiful piglets. We also just put Circle Walker into a farrowing pen. She is a 2nd gen Star gilt.

From our partners at OSU Extension:
Reforestation Assistance for landowners
who need to replant after wildfire.
Were you affected by the 2020 wildfires? Do you need to plant trees? Have you ordered the seedlings you need? If you need to plant trees and have not been able to find seedlings, please fill out this online survey form. Consider signing up to be included in a new program to provide seedlings at fair market prices for landowners affected by the fires.
Due to the wildfires, along with previously planned reforestation demand, availability of tree seedlings and tree planters is expected to be far short of what is needed over the next few years. OSU Extension is working with the Oregon Small Woodlands Association, Oregon Department of Forestry, US Forest Service, and other partners to assess the reforestation need and develop extra capacity to produce seedlings and plant trees.
We want to know who needs trees (and how many) in order to set our targets for aggregated seedling orders for people who have not been able to find trees. We are working on an order for 2021-2022, to be followed by longer range nursery orders to meet expected demand over the next several years.
If you are interested in ordering seedlings through this program please use the survey form to get on our list and we will get back in touch with you to confirm details.
Reforestation Assistance Survey
Do you need financial assistance to pay for re-planting burned areas that cannot/will not be salvage harvested? Under the federal Emergency Forest Restoration Program you may qualify for funding to cover up to 75% of the cost of re-planting some of the areas that burned. The deadline for applications is December 31, 2020. Contact your local office of the Farm Service Agency to apply.
If you have questions, please contact Glenn Ahrens glenn.ahrens@oregonstate.edu 503-655-8631

About The Breed
The earliest mention of the Gloucestershire Old Spots breed in English literature dates to around 1790. The Old Spots pig is friendly, funny, and floppy-eared, with a large, rounded body. They are white in color and can be sparsely or liberally decorated with black spots.
About Us
In the summer of 2013 many GOS breeders were looking for a place to discuss different aspects of raising GOS pigs. When a collective group of GOS breeders had a chance to meet, and talk about the many great ways to improve the herd, the GOSPBU was born.
