She's very sweet and I am very fond of piggies, but as above there are a lot of problems with these animals, lots of health and behavioural problems by poor breeding and the fact they are often bred from young stock (thus appearing smaller) and then infact sold off younger then implied as to retain the small size, and eventually end up around the same size as an average pot bellied or larger. Also the issues with DEFRA, herd number for movement etc etc not as simple as taking out n about as a lot of the breeders claim.

Have you registered with DEFRA and got a herd number and sent in your movement licences.
I think this is quite wrong to keep a pig like this.The rescues have already started to receive them.
Louise

yes i have all the DEFRA paperwork needed for thank you
all my paperwork is in order, as i have owned pigs before so know what is needed
and she will not be kept in the house forever she will will go out in garden once she is old enough and we have got her a mate, i have kept pigs before so know how to keep them.
i knew there would be someone who say this wrong as there is with all pets but it is each to their own

As I've said before Jackie, she is gorgeous

And no need for anyone to have any worries with Jackie and her pets! She has a massive garden for Lola to play in, and her pets are treated like royalty!
And I know everything Jackie has done is over and above board
Apart from my family, Jackie is the only person who I have ever trusted to look after Teagan!
