On the top side you have the illustraous sire, Fast Lane 3-7, that sired the 2010 WPX $50,000 Champion Boar and littermate gilts that sold for $5,100 and $10,500
On the bottom side his dam is sired by the English boar, Peter Lad, brought into the USA by SGI in 2005
What makes this a really unique pedigree is the extra structural stoutness and lean muscular makeup of Fast Lane combined with the extreme depth of body, flexibility and outstanding maternal traits of Peter Lad
An added very important benefit is the superior meat quality on both sides of the pedigree
Fast Lane was a 2010 NBS Super Sire with a 109.5 index that also ranked 4th on the Meat Quality Index at 104.8 out of 14 Berkshrie sires tested
The English imports have consistently ranked at the top on meat quality particularily IMF
Peter Lad II is a extra wide made boar that is bold shouldered, big ribbed and wide walking front and rear
He has good muscling yet displays the easy fleshing ability needed for superior meat quality
Level made, correctly designed, sound and correct on feet and legs; Peter Lad II presents a well balanced package with excellent Berkshire Breed characteristics
Peter Lad II's dam has been the top sow at ISU in terms of reproduction weaning essentially 100% of the live pigs farrowed. Her sire, Peter Lad's dam and paternal grandam, were out of litters of 14 farrowed, 14 weaned and 13 farrowed, 10 weaned respectively
Peter Lad II has a high quality 7-8 underline with four teats in front of the sheath
If you are interested in raising wide made, sound, functional Berkshires with superior meat quality and reproductive performance, Peter Lad II can do the job
