The Berkshire pig has excellent carcass quality and is consistently sweet, delicate, juicy, and delicious. These qualities make Berkshire pigs a favorite among American pork consumers. If you are looking for Berkshire pigs for sale you’re in luck! I will provide a list of recommended Berkshire pig breeders in the United States listed below.
Prices vary depending on the breeder, location and the age of the pig. It’s important to ask around and compare prices before making your purchase.
Before we get to the list of breeders, let’s go over some of the characteristics of the breed.
Berkshire Pig Characteristics
This is one of the oldest breeds in England, originating from the villages of Berkshire across the River Thames.
The American Berkshire breed was imported in the United States in the mid-1800s. It was followed by the formation of the American Berkshire Association in 1875 and became the first pig association worldwide.
The Berkshire pig has long been a favorite among farmers. This breed’s biggest benefits include its ability to gain weight quickly; its excellent health; and it’s great temperament.
The Berkshire boar should weigh no less than 600 lbs., while the sows should come in at over 500 lbs.
The Berkshire breed of swine has the most marbled meat of any other pig breed.
The Importance Of Choosing the Right Breeder
If you’re looking for Berkshire pigs for sale it’s important to find a reputable breeder with healthy, happy pigs.
It’s also important to make sure the breeders are registered members of the American Berkshire Association (ABA).
Membership in the ABA assures that each breeder has met registration requirements and will only use purebred stock. This increases the value of your future piglet or pig purchase.
If you live near an ABA member, that’s fantastic! But if you don’t know any local Berkshire pig breeders, make sure to reach out using the list below. Most of the breeders on the list will ship the pig to your doorstep.
Once you’ve found a breeder, it’s time to get down to business!
You may find Berkshire pigs for sale on Craigslist, but be careful! You won’t know anything about the breeder or if it’s a purebred Berkshire pig.
That is also why, whenever I am able to do so, I always suggest buying purebred pigs from respectable/registered breeders.
Berkshire Pig Price
It’s impossible to say exactly how much you will pay for a Berkshire piglet, as prices vary by the breeder.
However, it’s safe to say that for a Berkshire piglet, you may expect to pay anything between $100 and $200.Expect to pay at least double the price for a mature Berkshire.
For show-quality purebred pigs, you may pay a couple of hundred.

Final Thoughts
Originating from the quaint villages of Berkshire situated across the River Thames, the Berkshire pig boasts a heritage that traces back to the oldest breeds in England.
During the mid-1800s, the American Berkshire breed made its journey across the ocean to the United States, marking the beginning of its American legacy. The momentum continued with the establishment of the American Berkshire Association in 1875, a pivotal moment that marked the birth of the world’s first pig association.
Farmers have held the Berkshire pig in high regard for generations, and for good reason. This breed’s legacy is built upon its remarkable attributes, including its swift weight gain, robust health, and amiable temperament.
A noteworthy characteristic of the Berkshire pig is its impressive size. The Berkshire boar stands strong, tipping the scales at no less than 600 lbs. Meanwhile, the Berkshire sows hold their own, commanding a weight of over 500 lbs.
