6 month old male western hog - to brunate or not to brumate? That is the question.

I have a 65g male western hog that is 6 months old. I would like to try and breed him this spring. Do you think I need to brumate him? Have you had any luck with young males?

Thanks for your time and opinions.

Mark

I thought hog males had to be 1 1/2 years old to breed?

At 65, grams I would say brumate. You could always bring him out a little earlier than the females, to get a jump on his feeding.

Thanks Jason. I'll let him clean out for a month or so and then put him into hibernation.
