try not to wait until they weigh 75-90 lbs. seems back when we had them , something would always come up when one batch (100 or so) were ready and we would end up putting it off. if small enough you can have helper hold pig upside down with the head of the pig in a 5 gallon bucket. i always prefered to just hold them with my knees (this allows you to stand up and makes it easier for the "cutter" )AND tell the "cutter" to pay attention. we always used a
scapel and would spray the cut area with some type of antiseptic.
