Britain's fattest pigs weigh 720kg - thats 10,000 sausages!

Britain's fattest pair of breeding pigs certainly are making bacon after raising an astonishing 70 piglets - despite together weighing more than a CAR. Farmer Paul Parfitt reckons monster porkers Boris and Marjorie are the heaviest breeding couple in the country - and weigh enough together to make more than 10,000 sausages. Marjorie, three, weighs about 670lbs (300kg), but four-year-old Boris tips the scales at a whopping 925lbs (420kg) - after slimming down an astonishing 220lbs (100kg) during the winter months. Proud Paul, 37, said: "Boris has been on a bit of a diet over the winter - he's been inside so he loses weight, but in the summer he'll put it all back on once he's out in the fields.
