I guess some people take their pigs camping, doing a job in a campground today and my wife sees this pig.

Glad I had extra bacon this morning with breakfast.

Those make better lard than meat. I know a lot of people who have butchered them. You can usually get unsocialized adult pot belly pigs and related breeds, for free to cheap. When they get older and really fat, they put out an impressive amount of lard.

Yes pig ramp and all, wife talked to them. More to the story. Ronda is the pigs name, I guess they go in heat every 21 days or so then 5 days of period. She is a real pain on the 3/4 days of this. Compared to the hormones of a teenager. Can’t imagine traveling with this thing in a nice RV. I guess they had a blowout on the vehicle towed so where parked for the night getting new tires. Lady told my wife it’s been a terrible trip with the pig in heat and a peed off hubby having to buy new tires. Too bad that’s all they have to worry about.

Here they just let them go…there was one roaming the county everyone would post pics of when sighted. He apparently couldn’t read though and ended up on the wrong property…

Most years, at least a few people try to trade me pigs for other animals or just give me pigs. Pigs are an animal I have very little interest in having, except to eat.

People frequently try to trade or give me horses and ponies frequently too. I don't have any interest in keeping them either.

Daughter had one from the time it was weaned till it died at 8 years old. Never had to worry about it going in heat because of getting it spade. Pretty decent pet. Smarter and cleaner than a dog. Would go to the door and grunt when it wanted out. Really friendly with people it was around frequently but did not like strangers. A little bit of a diva. Would pout if she didn't get her way.

Dumb ppl have dumb pets- there are thru hikers on YouTube advocating goats for pack animals and I guess tent mates.

Yup, an almost weekly posting on social media up here of one wandering around some subdivision. There's one in Hampton that might as well have its own page for its adventures of the week.

JMO, they like cats should have an open season on them.

My uncle was a bachelor alcoholic and lived with a Yorkshire cross named Rosy. They ate at th same table but according to my uncle he drew the line at having her sleep in his bed which she wanted to do on various occasions. Probably in heat.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

Pork loin ends, just tossed on plum coals, for supper tonight.

I prefer pigs grilled, or in the case of bacon, fried. Roasts are good too, so is lunch meat. I like pork a lot.
