The scheming socialite Livia is putting a wicked plan into practice as she sets about stealing one of the very pigs she’s encouraged the Soldier to guard! Having set the horses free as a distraction, Livia pounces in broad daylight to abduct a squealing swine. She absconds over the rooftops, shoving the sow through a hole she’s poked in the slates before squeezing herself in behind it. No animal is now safe – she will encourage the townsfolk to declare open season on the hapless beasts (making sure that one male and one female is spared to keep the meat supply going.)
As it takes 12 weeks for a pig to reach edible weight the people of Avonville will need to spread their eating of the pigs. Why not have a pig roast once a week for all of the townsfolk, limiting it to four pigs a week.
I like the idea but remember that the female needs to go through around about 114 days of pregnancy so you could have half of a leg size portion of the pig if poor and half a head size per week if rich so that would be around 1-2 1/2 pigs every 4 weeks because you could have a half of a Leg portion of a cow for poor people and a head portion of a cow for the rich witch would be 1-1/2 cows and the same with sheep and that should last a week it would be between 2-3 sheep.
