You got a good deal. Just bought one for .40/lb. couple weeks ago. Was able to find a place an hour away to process it for me. Must've just beat the rush. Is it similar to skinning a deer?

A friend of mine in Texas had 11 in the trap at one time a few weeks ago. His grandson and a few of his buddies were killin', cutting and wrapping almost all night long. He said they were covered in ticks too (the hogs).

Well, after a very unsuccessful catfishing trip we came home and sliced, wrapped 42 pounds of home cured and smoked bacon. This should last a while.
