We have recently moved to Canada and anticipate a few litters in 2022.
Please contact us to be added to our waiting list. We will send a questionnaire to help you decide if you are ready for a Julie!
PET PIGS: Neutered boys, $800. Girls, $800. These will be registered with the Juliana Pig Association and Registry (JPAR) and will be microchipped. They will come with a no-breeding agreement. We do recommend that you have your female piglet spayed before maturity, they will be much happier and you'll be spared the very distinctive "piggy PMS!"
REGISTERED BREEDING STOCK: Boars, $1,200, Gilts or Sows, $1,500. Discount for multiple animals arranged by private treaty. We select only the best of our stock as potential breeders and will gladly replace any non-breeder or animal with a genetic defect with the next available piglet of equal value. Health is guaranteed for one year from date of purchase and any losses will be replaced upon receipt of a veterinarian's certificate stating the cause of death as being the result of a genetic condition and that the pig was otherwise in good condition.
DEPOSITS AND PAYMENT: We require a $200 deposit on all reservations. Order of selection of piglets will be based on deposit date. We accept e-Transfer, cash and cheques (cheques must clear before being considered paid). Final payment must clear before picking up or shipping your pig. No refunds will be issued should you fail to complete payment or take possession of your purchase once committed.
AGE AT WEANING: It is tempting to get a pig at 4 weeks of age. This is a common practice in the pet industry, but it is not healthy for the pig's emotional or physical development and will only be considered for piglets that are rejected, poor doers (runts) or orphans, for whom a long, loving relationship with their dam is not possible.
We generally prefer to place piglets at 8 weeks of age. When feasible, we welcome buyers to come visit their piglets on site while waiting!
SHIPPING:
Julianas of all ages travel well by air, in suitably sized, sturdy dog crates. We can arrange transport from Kelowna via WestJet, but it's a 6-hour round trip, so we will charge an additional $200 plus the cost of a quality crate. If Kamloops starts shipping pets by air again, that will be a much more affordable option.
There are many reputable livestock haulers available, but please ensure that your pig will be adequately fed and watered. Piglets can dehydrate quickly and this can be catastrophic on a long trip.
We are located in Barriere, BC, Canada. If you are in the US, the import restrictions can be daunting and subject to change with little notice. Please consult your current agricultural animal import guidelines. We are happy to accommodate testing and documentation at cost, but it can be substantive.

Auroboarus & Truffles - Planned for June 2022
1 male will be retained. 2nd male reserved.
This is our long-anticipated outcross breeding. Truffles is an older sow, and presents all of the characteristics we seek in our Julianas. Small, balanced, gentle.

Auroboarus & Hana - Farrowed 06/24/22
K1 - M (neutered) - available
K2 - F - available
K3 - F - available
K4 - F - available
Hana is arguably our most breed-correct Juliana, with the long, elegant face and strength of topline we expect in this breed. She is very well built with strong, broad rump, compact hooves and excellent movement.

Auroboarus & Bushido - Planned for June 2022
We anticipate this breeding to produce 50% blue eyes.
Bushido is Nori's dam, so spunky, sparkling personality is also anticipated!

Auroboarus & Puchi- Planned for June 2022
Puchi's friendly nature endeared her to us at an early age. She has also matured into a pleasingly robust but compact pig, and earned her ticket with us to Canada for all the right reasons: structure, substance and personality. Her face is a little shorter than the ideal for Julianas, for those who appreciate a slightly more snub-nosed look.
Auroboarus & Nori - Planned for June 2022
We anticipate this breeding to produce 50% blue eyes.
Nori was a fully fledged housepig until 5 months of age. Her toilet training was perfect and she was charming to all guests. Manners second to none, typical for her bloodlines. She is part of her outside pig family again, and we can hardly wait to see her first litter!

Piglets grow VERY quickly, but luckily they stay cute for life. The piglets in the middle are 7 weeks old, and the pair on the outside are 12 weeks old.
Piggies can be very competitive, messy eaters. Prepare a good spot for them to enjoy their meals... even if the occasional bowl is flipped!
