The Pig Processing That Didn’t Quite Go to Plan

Well, where do I begin? A few weeks ago, I was contacted by Phil, who runs a BBQ business and was looking for suckling piglets.
At Tirano Rare Breeds Farm, we specialise in breeding the world’s most charming and affectionate sheep, the Valais Blacknose. Known for their woolly curls and iconic black faces, these gentle souls are raised with daily care, premium nutrition, and respect for their wellbeing. Every sheep is nurtured as part of the family, ensuring a calm, confident temperament that makes them easy to love.
Every lamb is handled from birth, vet-checked, and raised in a clean, peaceful environment. We pride ourselves on transparency, traceability, and ethical breeding so that every animal leaving our farm represents the best of the breed. When you bring home a Tirano Valais, you’re not just buying a sheep, you’re joining a community of owners who genuinely care.
The Valais Blacknose is adored for its beauty and personality, and Tirano Rare Breeds Farm offers a limited number of these exceptional animals to approved homes. We believe in quality over quantity, because every placement matters and every match is made with heart.
