I'm about out of meat, though my little freezer is full of winter squash. Well, I can toss some of that. But, for over a year I've not trapped squat. I'd get a pig or two on the game camera about every other day, but couldn't catch one.

Lately, though, the pigs have moved in big time and I finally caught two of the little boogers last night. Was going to take a pic at the trap, but the batteries went south in my camera, had to come back to the house for batteries.

Are the smaller ones better eating?

I know that holds true for deer. I used to hunt with an old time Vermonter who would shoot any kind of deer he thought he could get away with. The little yearlings were absolutely delicious.
 
I'm going to set the trap tomorrow, again. I don't have a lot of freezer space left, need a bigger freezer, but I can always toss some of that winter squash I put up. Wife don't like it anyway and loves pork. :D I need to kill a larger one and give the neighbor half of it. They're weekenders and don't run a trap or anything. Told the wife on the way home from church, the pigs are here right now and you gotta make hay while the sun shines. :D
 
Congrats! Hope they taste great. I need to get myself out hunting again. I've been up to my ears in a 100% remodel of my kid's condo since last August. Time for dear old Dad to pull the firearms out again. "...all work and no play..."
