🥇Another Champion Added to the Sow Herd🥇

Really excited to add this awesome York gilt to our collection of sows at Dux Showpigs. A big THANK YOU to the Lempka family for letting us bring this one back to Jefferson County!

Be on the lookout for her offspring next year!

Lempka Crew did it again🔥

We have gotten way behind in posting winners this summer, but I couldn’t help but grab a quick video of our National Barrow Show Hampshire gilt entry for 2026.

This (Core Power x Heaven Can Wait) gilt has been what all good Hamp gilts are…slow maturing. However, as I’ve told my kids all year, when this one goes, she’s going to turn a few heads. She is cool fronted, big legged, and can go all day.

If you’re in the market for an outstanding Hampshire gilt that has power, look, and consistently cycles, look us up in Austin, MN!

What a run over Memorial Day weekend. Four shows (only three for our girls…Boone County Swine-a-Rama, Cornhusker Classic Day 1/Day 2, and the Osborne County, KS Memorial Day Spectacular) with multiple banners at each show.

It was definitely a busy and rewarding weekend, and we are so grateful for our entire show family for all of their help over these crazy days. Back at it again this weekend!
