Hi guys! I have an opportunity to adopt this pig. The owner doesn't know anything about it other than it's 3 months old. Does it look like a pot belly pig? That's really what I want to make sure of. I can't tell if it is or not. If it is, I wouldn't want it. Please let know what you guys think. Thanks!

And what tangled web of red tape has the OP entwined himself in now? It's some time since I kept pigs but I suspect it's colour will be the least of his problems. All livestock attracts vermin and in this case they will be carrying clip boards! :oops:

If the OP has a farm it shouldn't be that onerous as long as he or she makes sure that the pig is tagged before it arrives and movement recorded as per.

It's certainly less hassle than sheep, as long as you remember the 21 day standstill.....
