Our KuneKune Pigs
Quinn Harley
We found out too late that kiddie pools work for about the first five times they step into the pool; then the sides begin to collapse and the bottom gets holes in it so it doesn't hold water for long. Evidently, it's the kiddie SAND boxes we should've gotten. Now we have a few wallows fitting just their forms to put water in for them when it gets hot. These are some AWESOME pigs! They are like 2-300 lb lapdogs.
And they LOVE pecans. If they get out they don't run off, they go to the front and forage for pecans. Regular pigs would root and take off I guess, not these guys; they do root, but not as deep as regular pigs - at least so far. They stay on the property and look for goodies. I love these guys. Haven't tried to trim toenails yet, but it should be an adventure! They make sure to rub up against you to say hi and ask for scratches and rubs if you come into their pen (especially if they just got out of the wallow).
