At A Simpler Time Farm we strive to preserve the Kunekune Heritage breed by offering only the best of our litters as quality registered breeding stock; We DO NOT offer unregistered gilts or boars, ever!

We do, however, castrate our boars and offer as companion, pet or meat barrows.

Breeding stock: best suited for those who wish to start or improve their own Kunekune pork production. We only offer the best of our litters as Registered breeding stock; those we feel will carry on the positive attributes & traits of the Kunekune breed, ensuring the maintenance of this Heritage breed for future generations of farmers. Each is observed from farrowing and hand selected for their wonderful personalities, for meeting the breed standard and conformation qualities we've set forth on our farm. Thus, only passing on the best genetics to future generations from our breeding stock.

Companion, Pet or Meat stock: best suited for those looking to add a companion or a pet pig to their farm, or for those who wish to raise their own meat pig. These barrows did not meet the standards that we set out on our farm for registration, but they are all perfectly suitable to be companions, pets or grown out for your own meat. These guys are just as handsome as the rest!

All of our breeding stock are registered through AKKPS, or dual registered through AKKPS & IKHR

a simpler time farm Kunekune prices

Registered boar: starting price $1000

Registered gilt: starting price $1000

Meat barrows: $300 at weaning, increasing with size and age.

Meat barrows are often available as companions for our young breeding stock.

Starter packages: breeding duos, breeder/companion duos, and breeding trios with companions – prices vary please contact for pricing and availability.

Half or Whole Hogs: prices and availability vary

Price ranges are reflective of Canadian market price, conformation, lineage, and coloration. All sales are in accordance with our Animal Sales Policy and include the cost of registration, de-worming, iron shots, and ear tags. A 50% deposit is required to hold your piglet(s) and full payment is required before any livestock departs A Simpler Time Farm.

Since Kunekunes are herd animals and feel most comfortable with other members of their species we suggest they be purchased in groups of two or more; when an existing herd is not already in place on your farm. Please keep in mind, and we cannot stress this enough, breeding boars and gilts must be separated by 6 months of age until they are ready to breed they will need compatible companions during their separation period. We highly recommend our Breeder/Companion duos or breeding trios with companions if you're just starting out on your pork production journey, this will ensure your future breeder(s) will come with a companion barrow to keep them company until the reintroduction time, at which time you could choose to process the companion, or keep them as a buddy in the future if you plan to separate your boars and sows when not breeding.

Popular pasturing options that we recommend:

Barrows only; 2 or more barrows kept together for pets or grow outs
Gilt/Barrow; 1 breeding gilt & 1 barrow pastured together
Boar/Barrow; 1 breeding boar & 1 barrow pastured together
Gilts only; 2 or more gilts pastured together
Boars only; 2 or more boars pastured together

* If investing in a breeding duos, trios, or more please remember to keep each of your pastures occupied with two or more pigs, to ward off loneliness and depression.
