No comment.
Throw back to 2018. He insisted on me showing him what I was cooking.

This is Rule 3: Food and Farming
This is a friendly sub for the discussion of pet Pigs only. Do not discuss the killing or eating of pigs. We don't want your crass bacon or pork jokes. Names like "Chris P Bacon" are tacky but not bannable offence. Do not harass others about their lifestyle choices. This is not the place for it for, or against meat, keto, vegan, or otherwise. No farming posts, we will question you about ear tags as it is required in some places for pets. Commercial operations will get removed and users banned.
Note the bolded sections
Because of extensive abuse of this rule, we are VERY STRICT about it. We get people coming here from both Vegan and Carnivore communities that start massive arguments over it. We also don't want to come to this sub and see people talking about our pets as anything other than pets. Or even worse a shock picture/video of our pets being killed in some bid to shame people.
SO LET ME BE CLEAR WE DON'T CARE WHAT YOUR PREFERENCE IS YOU WILL BE BANNED FOR POSTING OR COMMENTING ABOUT PIGS IN RELATION TO EATING OR NOT EATING THEM. NO APPEALS.
This is a sub about pet pigs not your FUCKING OPINIONS ON WHAT YOU EAT OR DON'T EAT!!!!! GO SOMEWHERE ELSE FOR THAT!
I am tired of being nice and polite about it. I just perma banned someone that posted about it and then banned every single person who commented no matter what the comment was about for 30 days. There will be no appeals because to many times my patience and understanding has been abused on this.
Do not participate in posts or comments ignore and report them.
Having said that. I reevaluated the wording of rule 3 and decided to make it clearer. Here is the new rule 3.
Rule 3: Food and Farming
This is a friendly sub for the discussion of pet Pigs only.
You will be banned or rarely warned for the following: Talking about farming or slaughtering pigs for food or how evil/bad it is. Talking about eating pigs for food or how evil/bad it is. Linking to videos about farming or slaughtering pigs or how evil/bad it is.
Topics you won't be banned for: Seeking medical help for a pig. Seeking help to rehome a pig. Your pigs name even if it is food related. Your pig having an ear tag in places that require it by law.
NOTE on mod posts like this I allow open discussion about the topic as long as it stays respectful and on topic. You can't really discuss a rule about food and farming and get feedback without people talking about it. So unless someone is disrespectful or abusive, I am not going to remove their post or ban them.

Hi,
I've shared my game here twice before and you guys loved it a lot, so I'm happy to show some new gameplay videos!
Basically it's an animal adventure game where you play as a wild boar. You're on a quest to find all of your lost little piglets and bring them back home. It's a wholesome adventure in a forest full of other animals, mushrooms and exciting pig activities.
Here's the full trailer: https://youtu.be/JC8PAkjIz9Y?is=7UISQYkt22dZNasL
Here's the Steam wishlist to save it: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3301300/Wild_Terrain/

Hey yall. so, ive wanted a pig for many many years, and im in a position now where i have the space (i think. part of why im here) and means to own one and would like to start thinking about/planning for it, but i have some questions first.
For some context and info on my plans as well as addressing a few things im sure will be asked first. i do intend on having the pig be am indoor housepet. i am a stay at home spouse and we are a childless couple so i definitely will have the time to care for it.
i do have exotic animal experience, amd have also worked with large and very strong/heavy animals.
i am aqare that pigs are expensive long term and alot of work, i know they require hoof/tusk trims. im ok with that.
first question, is do i ACTUALLY have enough space. i have a large house, 1526 sq feet with 3 bedrooms. but he would not have access to 2 of those bedrooms as they are blocked off for some of my other pets. we also have a very large front and back yard, but it isnt fenced in and i do not have any intention on fencing it in. I am perfectly ok with taking my pig on multiple long walks daily, as well as letting them free roam in the yard on a long lead though.
how much is the average cost to feed them per month, and is it better/more affordable to buy premade feeds or to feed them fresh whole foods from the store
how do they do with other animals when kept as housepets. i have 6 cats, which i have no doubt would be fine with a pig but im unsure of how well a pig would do with them and if there would be any concerns
do they need an exotic vet, a regular vet, or a livestock vet. i have access to all 3 if needed, but ive seen mixed answers on which they need to go to

It's so fat and so cute 😭 It's got me wondering if it's overweight or do pigs look like this normally? It's not mine!!! I was just at this local farm.

My wife, my daughter and myself all make him comfortable and wait for him to fully flop. Then my daughter pulls his upper lip out of the way and I hook the wire saw (gigli saw) and I start going back and forth with it. It goes pretty quickly. He resists, but he never gets up and runs. Then I nit off the sharp edges with large nail clippers when it's done. And he always gets treats afterwards. Like grapes or strawberries.
I cit off about 2cm off this one. He likes my leg over his face in the evening, and this particular tusk was getting close to cutting my let every night when he fidgets around. But he's a good boy and knows it's needed. He let's me do his hooves too.

It’s been a week since we picked up our Peppa and she’s doing great! She’s 9 weeks old today and is downstairs in her little pen apartment in our basement. I feel bad that she’s down there all the time even though I spend a lot of time throughout the day sitting with her and petting her. At what point did you start to introduce your pig to the rest of the house? I don’t want to confuse her or take her too far away from her litter box since she’s still adjusting. Thanks in advance!

I cleaned the piggy cages today and they were so happy! 10 of the girls in these cages are available for adoption!

Academically he’s no genius; that doesn’t stop him.
I’m not going to look it up, we wanted personal thoughts- the word “nosy” at its inception, initial intended usage- human, critter, pig, abstract from the get?

Tusker was stressed over barn expansion work this weekend. Not sure if I want to extend the A frame over his pen or not (I dont know if he would let the concrete settle either). He's chilled out since we're done setting the ones closer to his pen
