CH ILF Tapeka 56 | Thumbelina

(CH ILF Landjager x BAIN Willa)

Based on her genetic background, we had very high expectations for this sow out of the gate. Thumbelina has yet to let us down, and has served as a true building piece. Our herd consists of more Thumbelina daughters than that of any other sow, or boar for that matter. At 12 months of age, Thumbelina exceeded 200 lbs, while measuring at a 0.7 inch backfat, 51 mm loin depth, and about 6.0 in² LEA. She holds our on-farm record for 21-day litter weight. Her genomics panel confirms favorable markers for pork tenderness and moisture.

PSP Tapeka 13 | 22-1

(G CH SMK Takoma x CH ILF Thumbelina)

Standout from day one, this female is in our opinion the most attractive, and with feet and legs that are tough to beat. Carcass merit ultrasound indicates a LEA of 4.92 in², and IMF of 3.0%.

PSP Tapeka 14 | 22-2

(G CH SMK Takoma x CH ILF Thumbelina)

Personal favorite from the 22 litter gilts. She has a big rib cage, wide based, and check out that ham. 22-2 is the thickest muscled gilt in the litter, scanning at a LEA of 5.89 in², and IMF of 2.7%.

CH PSP Tapeka 15 | 22-3

(G CH SMK Takoma x CH ILF Thumbelina)

The "heavy-weight" of the 22 litter gilts, this female is stout from the ground up and from shoulder to hip. Lots of of natural volume, and spring of rib in this girl. As she is maturing, we're seeing her as an impressive, complete package female. She brought forth a 5.38 in² LEA, and 3.5% IMF. In the 2024 Royal Christmas Show, she took Champion Junior Yearling female under judges Al Snedegar and Howard Parrish.

PSP Tapeka 16 | 22-4

(G CH SMK Takoma x CH ILF Thumbelina)

As time goes on, we are more and more excited about this one. Based on visual indicators we expect her to mature as the largest sow of her littermates. She scanned at 4% IMF.

CH PSP Tapeka 9 | Buttercream

(S CH USA Galloway x CH ILF Thumbelina)

Thick muscled, leaner growing sow with good breed character and classic look. Carcass merit scanning displayed a backfat measurement of 0.93 inches, and LEA of 5.0 in². SNP testing confirms favorable genes for pork tenderness and moisture traits. Took Champion Senior Yearling sow under Al Snedegar and Howard Parrish in 2024 Royal Christmas Show.

PSP Tapeka 11 | Bluebell

(S CH USA Galloway x CH ILF Thumbelina)

Bluebell is becoming a rising star for her classic breed type and genetic background. Great mothering ability.

PSP Tapeka 17 | 11-9

(ILF Gendarme x CH ILF Thumbelina)

The product of mating full-siblings together. Phenotype is just about right on this gilt! We will have to see if she brings out the extremes demonstrated by her grandmother when she farrows.

PSP Tapeka 6 | Viande

(CH ILF Landjager x ILF Valentina)

Although she is not as stand-out as her dam, Viande carries down the same maternal traits - heavier birth weight, high 21-day weight, and is an excellent mother. She possesses favorable genetic markers for pork pH, tenderness, moisture, and general meat quality.

ILF Tapeka 28 | Gold Rush

(ILF Mahia Love x ILF Goldilox)

Gold Rush is another Ivanleigh bred Tapeka sow, and is backed by BAIN Tapeka 2 - Willa on both sides of the pedigree. ILF Ru 5 - Matrix made a profound role in her flashy type, which is passing on in replacement gilts! Gold Rush is proving to be the herd building kind, and has daughters and grandaughters working their way into the sow herd here. Furthering her value, she ranks favorable in genetic markers for pork tenderness, marbling, pH, and general meat quality.​

PSP Tapeka 7 | Golden Girl

(CH ILF Landjager x ILF Gold Rush)

This female has a good broody look to her, big rib and ham, lots of eye appeal, and is backed by generations of Ivanleigh production genetics. Great mother and weans uniform offspring.

USA Wilsons Gina 30 | Patty Cake

(G CH USA Bakers Man x USA Plum Pudding)

USA Patty Cake has proven herself as an MGI producer, naming progeny such as Supreme CH USA Galloway, USA Pate du Porc, USA Jambon, USA Freight Train, among others. Carrying on the legacy of her sire, G CH USA Mahia Love 150++ Bakers Man, she will put her name down in the books as one of the most influential females in the history of our breed. Patty Cake is a top ranked sow in our herd for SNP genetic markers: favorable in pork tenderness, moisture, pH, marbling, and general meat quality.

Res. G CH USA Wilsons Gina 35 | Pate du Porc

​(CH LOZ St. John x USA Patty Cake)

Pate du Porc exemplifies the design we look for in a brood sow, tremendous length & depth of body, and quality underline. Favorable gene markers for pork tenderness, and moisture. Pate has been recognized in the show ring on multiple occasions, first taking Champion Junior Yearling sow of the 2022 IKHR Lockdown Hog Drive under judge Terry Shaffer. In the 2023 IKHR Royal Christmas Show, judge Alan Snedegar placed her 2nd in the aged sow class, and Reserve Grand Champion overall female.

PSP Wilsons Gina 7 | Porque la Grandeza 1-1

(G CH SMK Takoma x Res. G CH USA Pate du Porc)

An up and coming asset to the PSP sow herd. At 12 months, she reached 207 lbs from an average 2.2 lbs of feed/day. Carcass merit data collected via ultrasound revealed a 1.17 inch backfat, 1.83 inch loin depth, and estimated 5.53 in² LEA. She is maturing into a big broody sow and is doing a great job with her first litter.

LDF Trish 3 | Delilah

(CH LDF Indigo x GMF Moonshine)

An outlier in her own right. Delilah was purchased as a yearling, after seeing the tremendous grow power she has to offer. We were even further impressed by her yearling carcass scans. One of the highest muscling sows that we've heard of in the breed, she measured at a 6.67 in² LEA, and 2.35 in loin depth. Delilah tested with favorable genomic markers for pork tenderness, moisture, pH, and general meat quality.​
