with prices being what they are it`s cheaper to rent the whole pig for a few days than it is to buy a pound of bacon ! ROFL ROFL ROFL

You rent the boar to breed yer sows. Keeping boars is a full time job, they tend to destroy everything, whereas the sow is content to just tear up her own stuff. The boar figures that all sows are in heat all the time so he is always trying to get ota his place and into hers. Plus penned boars tend to want to eat the piglits so the sow will come back into heat.
