acti-veg: pastelprincessgalacticempress: acti-veg: pastelprincessgalacticempress: Well yea, they gotta be adults for some good ham, bacon and sausage. Not quite. Hey, dumbass, the subject was pigs. And they mature between 5-6 months. So it is exactly right you damn lunatic. Just a helpful hint for the future, do just the tiniest bit of research before wading into an argument you know nothing about. From The Worldwide Veterinary Service, on the life stages of domestic pigs: Oh acti veg. You too should take your own advice sometimes. A grown pig is actually five to six months old. I’m not sure where you got that “vet page” but let me help you educate people because you don’t have your facts straight. Sexual maturity is reached by both the male and female pig at about 5–6 months of age.A six month old pig can breed. Hence that is the adult age. As reproducing age determines what we deem adult. Now. What I assume you are trying to portray is the next stage of growth. After six months pigs tend to carry on growing, more weight and a bit more height, mostly mass thou. 6 months on they grow till they are about 18 months old to which is final size. Did you know that we tend to remove boars from breeding after 3 to 4 years old simply because we care about pigs? Boars increase in mass and after three can be too heavy for most sows unless they are of the same size and even then it’s uncomfortable for them. We don’t want the girls hurt therefor we get smaller boars for them. I know it’s hard to understand we farmers have reasons for what we do but you really should attempt to learn why we do things as we do rather then jump to conclusions like you do. Also I notice that the pig lifespan is over extended on the list. It’s actually six to ten normally. Just where are you getting your info? In fact most of the ages on your list are like saying all humans live to 100 on average. Every case on your list actually is one of the rare cases of some of the worlds oldests. Again I’ll point out your lack of research. A veal calves? 20 years? No. A calf is a baby. A cow is a female after calving. A steer is a neutered male and a bull is a boy. 20 is extremely old. A normal lifespan is more 13 to 15. So your list goes baby, dairy and beef cow. We will again rule out the calves since you don’t know what those are. Dairy. 13 to 15. And beef 10 to 12Egg laying hens are more 5 to 10 years. Broilers? 20 years? You haven’t even looked up what those are have you? Those chickens have been created to grow fast and large to feed people faster. Those chickens live five to seven weeks as after that the poor things simply increase in weight because that is what their bodies are designed to do. They would rarely past a year as the internal organs fail. They are not a natural chicken. You cannot take two and breed them. Ducks and turkeys again are over ages on your list. 5 to ten years.Sheep 10 to 12. So before you try and teach anyone else. Maybe do a quick search and omit the worlds longest lived animals. -- source link
