ASTRONAUT
Sire: Emotion
Dam: Times Up (Brantley Platt's Grand Gilt 2020 NJS)
Bred by: Platt Showpigs
Ear Notch: 127-5
Registration: 643841005

Astronaut is one very unique breeding boar that we feel can hit a home run on the right females. Mother is Brantley Platt’s Grand Champion Gilt at the 2020 NJS that was bred by Kilmer and out of one incredible litter and a mate to Fight Club and Knockout. Sired by a herdsire at Cobb’s that we felt would offer some new blood and not sacrifice quality. Astronaut is a littermate to Pilot that we have in stud and also a littermate sister was the 2021 NJSA Foundation Female. Some different genetics in this pedigree and a proven sow line that we know works.

Astronaut is one that was a standout baby pig that offered so much of a wow factor and always was the one that had the most of everything. He is giant legged, has huge feet, and one thats set up front is correct and can flex and reach out of his hind leg. As wide and powerful up high with tons of shape and takes it to the ground when he leaves with a super square hind leg. If breeding a design female that is good everywhere that just needs more of everything in a good looking package, then jump on the space ship with ASTRONAUT!!!!!
