shoat

Travis liked the shoats too, but fortunately, that year none of our present piglets had evidenced a singular enough personality to earn a name.

“Yes, Bethlehem,” and he said suddenly, “Go to bed. We’ve got a year of work—a year. Get some rest. I’m going to borrow money from Will to buy a hundred shoats.”

The least little old biting shoat could make her take cover.

They can live with hogs, have half a dozen shoats at the dinner-table, a litter of pigs in the family bed, but they can't abide Irish.

Droves of black hogs and shoats are ploughing the sward in their search for sweet roots, or lying half-buried in the wet sand.
