The Gloucester Old Spots are the oldest spotted pedigree breed in the world.
A large animal, white in colour with a minimum of one distinct black spot. The ears grow to be quite floppy, almost covering the face of an adult pig.
Tough and hardy, they are well suited to the outdoor life.
Some of the best tasting pork and bacon comes from GOS and the dams make prolific breeders.
Its placid nature makes this an excellent breed for the first timer.
