How many of you country boys know what it means when saying it is never to hot to cut a horse and
never to cold to cut a pig???
In both cases truer words were never spoken!!

I will admit that I don't know. BUT, being second in line I just have to say yuuup, and take a drink of my beer.

Grewup farming and always had hogs. Helped castrate hundreds. Never heard the phrase. Must be a regional thing .

Good friend would help "cut" the piglets.
Said there was no way to get the pig poo off your hands, no soap, no perfume.
Just wear it off. Younger member of the family was chosen for the honor.

Been years since I cut a hog, but we always cut our colts by the sign, farmers almanac .
But to answer the question, no, never heard that one.

Had an old farmer friend now very long gone who would come out to my uncles farm to cut his billy goats. He only did the job during certain phases of the moon cycle

I would speculate when that phrase came about liquor was involved.

That certainly makes sense.

Most likely! Probably a New Moon cycle. Where the night is totally DARK so ole Granny can't see what mischief the ole boy is up to! 😂

If I remember correctly, if you are castrating by the signs you want the sign to be below the knees. Below the knees reduces swelling.
Come on now, none of you have answered the original questions. Once I answer these two questions it will be exceedingly obvious why it is never to hot to cut a horse or to cold to cut a pig.

You want it cold when cutting pigs to hold down the smell of the pigpen; you want it hot when your're cutting horses so they won't be so frisky as when it's cool.

I have no clue, but somehow fairly sure I’m not missing anything.
