This dude showed up on camera this last month. Never seen a hampshire with this coloration. Those silver pipes are 3' long, to give you scale

If those pipes are 3' long as the OP stated, their angle means that pig's back is only 15-18 inches off the ground.
The pig looks big but if the scale stated in the original post is correct, that's only a 100 pound porker.

I know how you like to disagree with ILNH but EVEN from my inexperience with hogs, the ground to belly has got to be app 10", so I'd put it at more like app 25-30" at the back & WAY over 100 lbs. Not trying to insult, OR fanny smooch, but I'd go with the 250 lbs +/- 25. I can think of 1 way to know for sure, sick jr on it.

Nacho, I found my problem.
I was basing my height on the entire length of the post, not the bottom pipe that the post was in.

In the two weeks I've been up north in MD, nearly every Sow I see is in the 200-300 pound range.... It's terrible.... No eye candy here...

Now go kill a hog! A big boy...

You gotta adapt to the new surroundings GB, you were too spoiled. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, put your beer goggles on and enjoy the muffin top/belly shirts, & cellulite testing the limits of the yoga pants, kinda like going to walmart. :tequila :eek :rockon
