Alken and his 2 littermate brothers were three fastest growing (average 140 days) and top three indexing on MLI. The six littermate gilts were all in the top nine on MLI index out of 75 in their contemporary group
We selected Alken from the three littermates because of his excellent design and superior flexibility and total soundness
Alken is a long fronted boar that is long bodied and level from shoulder to tail setting
He is wide sprung with very good substance of bone and has very good angulations of both front and rear with excellent toe size
Alken's dam is the top indexing sow in the Tempel's herd. She has averaged 14.25 NBA, 11.0 weaned and 166 Lb LWT for 11 parities with her EPDs for NBA and LWT ranking in the top 2% of the breed
Alken dam's sire, SGI Falken 347-14, ranked 2nd NBA and SPI, 4th MLI and 7th LWT in April 2008 Sire Summary
Alken's sire, Alexander 53-8, ranks 4th on EPDs Days (-3.67) and has very good MLI of 114.9
The paternal Grandsire, Alexander 35-6, has been the driving force in the Tempel's herd and is one impressive boar at six-years of age
From an outstanding litter backed by tremendous maternal production for several generations, Alken is destined to be a true generator
