We raise American Guinea hogs, which are small, fun, friendly and tasty! We have one boar and one sow, and use their offspring to fill up our freezer.
For some reason, the last batch of piglets simply refuses to be contained. We tighten the fences, we watch them, and still they somehow slither out when we look away. So, since we have been in a drought and have no lawn to worry about, we have just accepted it. Each morning when I feed the pigs, I lock the piglets in their pen. Then, each day they manage to escape, and sleep in a grove of trees near their pen. They aren't bothering anything, so for now we are just letting them roam, till up the dirt, and enjoy their little piggy lives.
In another 3 months they will be in the freezer, so they may as well enjoy life now!
