Melinda Brown - Pigs

They’re just like a little dog, just a five or six-hundred pound one, but you can never be in a hurry, if they want to stop and eat the flower, that’s what they’re going to do. There’s no tapping them on the butt trying to get them to go there, hopefully they’re hungry so you can get them to move. I had four of them in the house this past winter and I was bottle feeding them and there is nothing cuter than that. They’re litter trained, pigs are the cleanest animals, like when they are born and they work their way around, momma doesn’t lick them or anything, they’ll automatically make their way around and start nursing and whenever they have to pee or poop they’ll go a few feet away and do it and then come back and nurse. And within a few days, they’re going over there to that wet spot. And then when I bring them in the house, they’re litter trained, all you gotta do is have a box and I actually use kitty litter. They’re so cute, they’ll eat and off they run to that litter box. So it’s easy to have them as a house pet, there is nothing cuter than having those four little pigs running around and thinking I’m momma.

They’re not pets, they are cute, but you can eat them too! These pigs aren’t pets, I have a skull in there that I keep because Chester was an 800-pound boar hog and he had big I-teeth and I like to show people the teeth that a pig has, they’re not pets. Especially the girls when they come in heat.
