I sell feral hogs and for a 200 lb u will get a little less than $100 but for a 60lb hog, u will get about 7 bucks. However, most of the time it is worth taking them to the sale barn.

Wild Hog Buyers - 10/27/10 03:56 AM

I am in MAxwell, btwn San Marcos and Lockhart. Have 20-30 maybe more hogs going in a corral trap for a few weeks now. Am going to trap them is there any approved buyers close that can pick them up once I catch them? I don't have any way to deliver them. Or what do I do with them once I catch that many?

Re: Wild Hog Buyers - 10/27/10 04:14 AM

Re: Wild Hog Buyers - 10/27/10 04:17 AM

I have been, they keep coming. Have been using gen 3 NV, thermal spotter and supressors have shot over 50 this month! Thinking about selling hunts?

Posted By: yam13f

Re: Wild Hog Buyers - 10/27/10 04:19 AM

nice. could make a few bucks!

Posted By: possom813

Re: Wild Hog Buyers - 10/27/10 04:53 AM

I'm not a buyer, but I can come and pick them up for you. We'll stick them in a pen and process them at about 3 a day until they're all on ice.

EDIT: It was pointed out that I failed to mention the pen I would be holding them in is resting on a trailer that has been modified specifically for the transport of large numbers of hogs.

Unless TAHC has changed anything since 2009, when it became legal to sell boars to game preserves, ie. hunting ranches, then the regulations that were posted below are still in effect.

I certainly appreciate the concern, but in the transport and slaughtering of hogs, I assure you, I, nor the few people that work with me, are doing anything illegal in the eyes of Texas or TAHC.

Thank You,
John

EDIT AGAIN: Deleted part of the previous edit, waiting on verifiable evidence that I'm doing something wrong when TAHC and the local GW's say I'm not.

Slightly illegal there possum, one cannot move live feral hogs from the property they are trapped or caught on unless they are going directly to an approved Texas Animal Health Commission Holding Facility or a TAHC processing plant.

sry for the size, but couldn't get it to resize. Could have been updated since then, but I couldn't find where it had been.

Re: Wild Hog Buyers - 10/27/10 09:11 PM

Looks like you can hold them for 7 days on the trailer. I thought it was 10, but it looks like it's seven. Slaughter three or four a day, you'll get 28 done in a week.

Wrong, I have a trailer trap and do the same as below. Game Warden even comes by to see how many we are trapping and gives me his blessing. 7 days though.

Re: Wild Hog Buyers - 10/28/10 01:03 AM

"authorized hunting preserve"--- What kind of paper trail do folks have to go through for that status? (I'de never wish any extra hogs on our places, just curious is all)

Kirk Strauch in Malone, his number has been disconnected since earlier this year. I assume he closed down his station, it's a shame too, because he was consistently about 10 cents higher per pound than everyone else.

Jeff Johnson in Ellis County, his number was going to voicemail earlier this year, I haven't called it in the past couple of months to see if he's still in operation or not.

40 cents a pound wouldnt be bad. I could trap quite a few large hogs and make a trip to a nearby buyer. Having 1-2 dozen hogs in the 150-250 pound range would be possible for me to catch, especially this time of year.

And call a couple of stations because I suspect a few are not paying what the company says and keeping the difference!!!!

That means, as long as you don't turn them loose out of the trailer, your fine with moving them around.

Re: Wild Hog Buyers - 01/23/13 05:12 PM

They should be up and running again. The reason (so I'm told) for the stations shutting down is because the packing plants hire mostly illegals, who all go back to Mexico for Christmas. You'd just have to call one of the buying stations and see if they're open yet.

Google " TAHC Feral Hog Buying Stations Texas".

This is only a list of who is still current with their permitting (2 years).
Its accurate within the last 60 days of permitted facilities.
A few have ceased for one reason or another.
Some are private facilities and do not buy or accept animals from the general public.

Its always best to call and find out days open, hours of operation, and terms of acceptance.

Re: TAHC Approved Feral Swine Buying Stations - 06/06/13 01:36 PM

So, you catch them and sell them live? Or are they buying dead Hogs? Unfortunately, we are not allowed to transport a Feral Hog. There has supposedly been a lot of Dog Hunters spreading the Hogs across the State so they can hunt them.

Posted By: Kbar Ag Service

Re: TAHC Approved Feral Swine Buying Stations - 06/17/13 02:52 PM

Originally Posted By: HOG RUSH

Dead animals are not allowed in any buying facilities and those that die have to be disposed of in accordance with the local County Health Departments rules and standards.

When you say that you are "unfortunate" in not being able to transport animals, that really depends on how you look at it. The problem we have here in Texas has been caused by a multitude of issues, including, but not limited to the transport and release of animals from one location to another.
Dog hunters get the blame for the releasing quite a bit, but I don't think they scratch the surface. Its alot of work to catch an animal and contain it alive for releasing without any assurances of ever seeing that animal again. That is unless you have a facility designed for containment.
Individuals that sell to people thinking they can raise them to the quality of domestic pork or to those that have the misconception that they can release these animals on a small piece of property and contain them for sport. These are the people that have no idea as to the repercussions of their actions. I know the State is stepping up the efforts to stop this, but their resources are limited compared to the number of individuals breaking the law.

Just my .02 on what really started the snowball rolling.

kyotee1 is correct. You may only transport living feral hogs to an approved TAHC holding facility. You can only hold your catch for 48 hours. You may not release them after that time, they will have to be destroyed.

After seeing your post it makes me think that different counties, due to supply, may have different pricing, maybe.

Maybe the buying station locations are a reflection of wild hog population distribution?

What area inside Texas tends to have more wild pigs?

Thanks for the update. I had heard prices had dropped. I guess the stronger dollar is having an effect.

There are at least a couple of places in Texas that deal with live feral pigs. They process the meat and package it for sale. It's my understanding that the largest market is Europe, where 'wild boar' is commonly eaten. That's probably why the prices have dropped recently. The dollar has strengthened in the last six months or so, making USA exports more expensive. They're having to lower the price to remain competitive.

I've personally used Kenny long from Cooke county. He does a fast clean job. We had 20 piggies. He offloaded them and weighed them quickly. He gave us our money and we were gone within 20 minutes.

Been on my place for almost 5 seasons now and didn't have a single pig until last summer. Its a problem now so recently built a trap to catch the little boogers. Located in northern Mills County between Brownwood and Richland Springs. Anyone in this area buying, willing to pick up from location?

I think I saw that some of them end up becoming ingredients in dog food.

They used to be shipped live in containers to the Orient, is that no longer the case?
