Here at Circle B Ranch we believe in naturally and humanely feeding and handling our Heritage Berkshire hogs.  A couple of years ago while doing research on how to naturally finish our Berkshire hogs, we came across a few articles on the internet that encouraged feeding whey products to our Circle B Ranch Heritage Berkshire Hogs.    What is whey?  Whey is the liquid remaining after milk has been curdled and strained. It is a co-product of the manufacture of cheese or casein and has several uses.

We began feeding them goat whey from Terrell Creek Farm which like us, feeds their goats an all natural diet and are an Animal Welfare raised and handled farm. Feeding hogs whey not only adds lean protein to their diets, increases the sustainability of the local farmer and closes the ecological loop. When our Circle B Ranch Heritage Berkshire hogs receive whey it increases their “good” fat content which gives them the amazing taste that only pasture raised hogs can have!
