Just an FYI, even pig breeders often use a breeding crate that protects a smaller sow. A woman could use the same.I'm reading this topic and see lot of positive opinions about piggies. I think it may be to risky for me if big boar start to hump on me. I'm quite small woman and probably to small for big pig male. I prefer stay with dog, like german shepherd for example. K9's are also bigger than me but they not oversize me. Safety first ?

That’s is very common. They protect breeding stockJust an FYI, even pig breeders often use a breeding crate that protects a smaller sow. A woman could use the same.
A breeding crate could of course be used. I suggest she find a small boar instead.Just an FYI, even pig breeders often use a breeding crate that protects a smaller sow. A woman could use the same.
I wonder which breeds you consider smaller that have a good or decent temperament? The more gentle small breeds get really fat. The leaner smallish breeds are more feral, more wild.I suggest she find a small boar instead.
I have a few times been covered by a medium sized boar.
Unfortunately true !! ?Opportunity usually difficult to find
big eater? not really. Good ration mixed with greens they do very well. Have raised many in my days, and am going to again soon, one will be mine for sure and his size will just be wonderful in 3 yearsI wonder which breeds you consider smaller that have a good or decent temperament?

I've had red wattles. They get big. A Hampshire & and mangalista cross wasn't as big.
In my opinion, it's easier to get and keep a boar than a stud pony, for comparison. Beyond that first year, though, the boar will be a big eater! I just don't see long-term keeping as viable, unless they're quite small, or earning their keep breeding sows. Otherwise, it would have to be short-term.
Actually very intelligent animals from what I have read as well.big eater? not really. Good ration mixed with greens they do very well. Have raised many in my days, and am going to again soon, one will be mine for sure and his size will just be wonderful in 3 years

This is true. The level of stall upkeep is due to the owner.So I've read. Also are only as dirty as the environment that they are sheltered in or so I have been told
Can even be kept as indoor pets if they’re of the medium or smaller size breedsThis is true. The level of stall upkeep is due to the owner.
I once had a co-worker have a pig as a pet. Treated it just like a dog. And It was a pot belly pig, so he was a decent size pig.Can even be kept as indoor pets if they’re of the medium or smaller size breeds
Or several perhaps ?I'd love to have a pig fuck me and breed me.
Yes several of them.Or several perhaps ?
