Farmer and the pigs
A farmer had 5 female pigs, times were bad so he decided to sell them at the Country Fair.
At the fair he met another farmer who had 5 male pigs to sell. After discussing their problems they decided to mate the pigs and split everything 50/50.
The farmers lived 50 miles apart so they agreed to meet halfway.
The next morning the farmer loads up the female pigs into his station wagon and drove the 25 miles to meet up with the other farmer.
Whilst the pigs were mating he asked the other farmer, “How will I know if they’re pregnant?”
The other farmer replied, “ if they’re lying in the grass tomorrow they will be pregnant and if they’re in the mud we’ll try again”
Next morning the pigs were all in the mud, so he hosed them off loaded them into the station wagon and tried again with the other pigs.
This continued all week and the farmer was that tired he asked the wife to look out the window to see where the pigs were.
Wife replied “ well they aren’t in the field as they’re in the car and one of them is honking the horn!”
