How do you sex a piglet? Is it obvious if you have one in front of you? I've just never been up close & personal with one . . .
I don't know about the little ones, but if you've ever seen a grown intact male pig from behind, you'd know it!!!!!

I can't believe I missed this thread earlier. Been busy staring at my little chicks. :lol:

I've been laughing so much, SO had to come and see what I was laughing at. He would like a pig to drop into our place too, and a milk goat and some sheep and the appropriate fencing for each of them. Oh and someone to help with all the work. The teenage son is useless!!! :lol:

Thanks FarmerDenise . . . I bet it is pretty obvious then, even on a little piglet.

Yay for fun Fridays on the forum!

Oscar sounds like a good name. The last two pigs we had were Porky(Porkette, female) and Wilbur.. I know.. creative.
Pretty soon you'll be having conversations like 'Mmm Porky sure is good.' -gasps- 'Mom! that's not Porky! Don't you know your own pig when you taste it?!

We always have fights at the dinner table over who we were eating :lol:
