Does the sow show any signs of being larger and pear shaped? She could be pregnant and you could keep the boars with dad and sows with mam once they have weaned around 3-4 weeks old.

One is bigger than the other but they are different ages. The man who gave us them is hard to understand so we don't know too much about them, but they have been kept together since the younger was born from what I can work out.
It was the OH that noticed they are different sexes so I will take a look tomorrow and see if it is the bigger one or not and see if she is "pear" shaped.
That sounds like a good plan to have some babes and then split them, that was going to be my next question since she could already be pregnant.
