He’s got great big legs and feet with a skull and blade to match. We are all in the barrow business and we all have heard at every show that they have to be sounder, they have to be able to go, they have to be square leaving you, they have to have balance… well that’s this boar. When they are made like this one, Mama’s Right, they tend to hang the big banner. Unfortunately due to an injured shoulder we have just started collecting Mama’s Right, don’t forget or miss out on using one that exemplifies where we are headed as far as maturity and look and is what we have all said we have to start with, which is perfect feet and legs. 5 no hesitation Monumental X Warfare Bred by Mason Livestock Stress Negative | Semen: $200/dose Giant barrel shape rib, square and moderate with champion showpig design!

Champion Yorkshire 2013 State Fair of Texas Shown by Weatherford Family Mr. Wolf is near perfect at the ground, so square from behind and athletic but still offering great width, rib and muscle. He’s short bodied, up fronted, and great at his ham loin. He would be just as good if he was belted, but even better white.

His littermate was Reserve Champion York at 2013 State Fair of Texas and the only one there we thought had a chance to beat the Mr. Wolf sired champion. We feel very lucky to have him and honestly he just fell in our laps and usually that’s how the great ones land!!!

For the simple fact that he makes pigs better, they feed, they will and are winning, and then there is a set of gilts out there that will be heard from. Show Me Ur Swag could truly be as good of a sire to come around that can impact generations of hogs. Read the original description up top….He sires that way….Big Big legged pigs that have a monster forerib and center cavity and can flat go as far as flexibility. At times, pigs may be even a little too short bodied and “chunky”, which definitely separates Show Me in the Swagger line of the industry and yet they still have an unbelievably cocky, show pig look up front and feeders will tell you they do and will respond to the bucket.......He is fun to have!!!

Big ribbed, extra moderate frame & short bodied with big stout skull. Springsteen may be one of the most successful boars at as many different breeders farms across the country as we know of. He makes pigs that are powerful with look and square build and seems to work on a wide variety of pedigrees and sow types. He has become the most popular boar at The Stud and he has earned this right through his siring ability!! One of the few in recent times that has gotten used way more in his 2nd and 3rd season than did his first!! That means he worked! 12 Reserve Grand Crossbred Gilt 2014 NJSA SE Regional Bred by Mauck Show Hogs Grand Champion Gilt Ring A & Reserve Grand Ring B 2013 Black Gold Classic Shown by Gage Fullen Bred by Lackey Livestock Grand Champion Gilt 2013 State Fair of Texas Shown by Jayton Benavidez Bred by: Schley Farms Grand Champion Barrow 2013 Georgia National Bred by: Mauck Show Hogs poison springsteen X tapp datt stress negative Semen: $200/dose Bred by Rival Genetics Still no picture and now that the pigs are here, they can speak for him!!

The most frequent question we have is who to breed Tapp to, and after 6 years we can truly say that we would breed any sow on the farm to him and have confidence that not only that they would be bloomy babies, but that they will have a chance to feed and win. He consistently makes what every judge loves: high headed, level designed ones that run up hill, undoubtedly function out of hip and hind leg and are the right length of body, and they just know when you turn up the feed, its time to respond and win. He’s fun to have, and it’s fun to watch his pigs. If you haven’t gotten in yet, you better pretty quick, he’s getting old...If you have used before, we don’t have to tell you to use him again!!! Recent Sire Success: Grand Champion Briscoe County, bred by The Stud | Grand Champion Calcasieu parish, bred by The Stud | Reserve Grand Champion Calcasieu Parish, bred by Soulieau | Grand Champion Gilt Tri-Area Show, bred by The Herd | Grand Champion Austin County, bred by Schley Farms | Grand Champion Kendall County, Bred by David Esser | Grand Champion Gilt Haskell County, bred by The Herd | Reserve Grand Allen Parrish, bred by Lettow 14 Kenneth Soileau Ville Platte, La “Tapp Datt” - It’s hard to believe that the extremely green, skinny male who nearly died once while nursing because of his size and then again as a weanling from greasy pig survived only to become the 5th best male in his litter and a “no sale” in our 2008 fall sale. This “no sale” enabled him to later go on to place 4th in the Duncan sift and sale as a boar prospect to Mike Clay. Nearly 6-years and 3-owners later Tapp appears to be more relevant and popular than ever. To say in words what he has meant to our herd would probably not do him justice but even with the national exposure combined with the fact that 90% of our females go back to his mother the thing about Tapp that we have enjoyed the most has been the amount of industry people that we have had the chance to become acquainted with over the years only because it seems like no matter where we went someone would always introduce us as “hey this is Soileau, the guy who bred Tapp Datt”. The influence is Undeniable... “As much as this boar has been used or not been used he’s probably the one boar that regardless what kind of sow that we have bred him to, he never leaves us at the end of the day wishing we would have done something different, they just continue to get better and better!” Eric Marceaux, La Grand Champion Gilt 2014 Hill Country District Show Bred by Esser Reserve Grand Overall 2014 Louisiana Southwest District Show Bred by The Stud Grand Champion Overall 2014 Top of Texas Bred by Rival Genetics Champion Dark Cross 2013 San Antonio Livestock Show Bred by: Lettow Showpigs Champion Dark Crossbred 2012 San Antonio Livestock Show Bred by Lettow Showpigs Champion Lightweight Hampshire Barrow 2012 San Antonio Livestock Show Bred by Schley Farm grand champion 2012 South Dakota State Fair Bred by Johnke Reserve Champion Hampshire Barrow 2011 Houston Livestock Show Bred by Schley Farms Reserve Lightweight Dark Crossbred 2011 San Antonio Livestock Show Bred by Schley Farms Reserve Crossbred Barrow 2010 San Antonio Livestock Show Bred by Mike Clay Reserve Grand Champion 2010 Belt Buckle Bonanza Bred by Schley Farms Champion Lightweight Div.

These guys are always there to discuss matings and breeding ideas and have always gone above and beyond to accommodate our needs, even going as far as sending us semen that were meant for their own sows! Class Act guys offering an Elite set of boars that we wouldn’t be afraid to breed every sow on the farm!” Eric Marceaux, Marceaux Genetics “The Stud is a firm that is quality conscious and very service oriented. We’ll soon be posting several winners sired by their boars.” Glenn Blount, Blount Farms “Thank you for providing our farm with the things that matter! Conception rates – Our conception rate on Stud Semen is 91.3%. Happy. Happy. Happy! Service - Thank you Daniel and Kelton for being men of character. You will never know what that truly means to me. I cherish our friendship and your service! Quality - At the end of the day winning is all that matters! Even with all the professional service and unbeatable conception rates in the world if I felt thatthe boar lineup was not capable of generating winners “The Stud” would not be a viable option for me. I truly believe that this boar lineup is on the cuttingedge of industry trends today combined with all the confidence in the world for the future.” Kenneth Soileau,Ville Platte, Louisiana “Our experience using semen from The Stud has been positive. Semen quality has been phenomenal and last summer helped produce our biggest litter sizes we’ve had in while. Kelton and Carrie always help to accommodate any order. The set of boars on stud are very good, extremely deep, and offer diversity for any type of program.” Jason Lackey, Lackey Livestock 16 All these champions were sired by The Stud boars and fed Lindner Feed.
