Bedding might seem simple, but for pigs, it’s a big deal. 🐷

Not all bedding options are safe — especially in cold weather. Here’s the truth:
➡️ Hay is food, not bedding
➡️ Straw insulates and is safe to root, chew, or snuggle in
➡️ Blankets hold moisture and can freeze if pigs sleep outside

The wrong choice can lead to mold, illness, or even frostbite.
That’s why straw is always my go-to, especially in winter!

💬 Tell me in the comments: What bedding does your pig use?

This is the photo I’ve been trying to get for so long—and it’s finally here. Look closely… see how the milk comes out in two little streams and hits the piglet’s cheeks? That’s by design. A mother pig’s milk doesn’t shoot to the back of the throat (like a bottle does) because that would cause choking.

Nature’s designer knows best.

This is also exactly why we never bottle-feed piglets. If you have to supplement, pan feeding is the safest way to go.

It’s truly incredible how a piglet’s body and its mama’s body work together perfectly when we let them.

Have you ever seen anything like this before? Or did you learn something new from this photo?

Some days, all you need is a little piggy snuggle to turn everything around.

Because honestly…
My therapist has a snout.

If you know, you know.
Pig people just get it!

Tag someone whose emotional support pig (or pet!) always knows how to lift their spirits.
And tell me—what’s your pig’s go-to move when you need a mood boost?

EDIT: Charlotte has found a home!! Thank you to everyone who shared my posts! 🐷♥️

Location: New Cumberland, West Virginia

Charlotte needs a new home.

This is not a piglet that was born here. The family reached out to me to help them find her a home. An experienced pig family is ideal.

A message from her family:

Charlotte is about 5 years old, she is spayed,and we are guessing she weighs around 150lbs. She is potty trained. We live in New Cumberland, WV. Thank you for being so kind and offering to help us out!! 😊

If you would like more information, let me know in the comments.

Meet Oscar: The Pig Who Changed Everything 🐷❤️

This collage holds so many memories with my first pig, Oscar. He was the one who started it all—my love for pigs, my passion for learning, and ultimately, my mission to help others.

When I first got Oscar, I had no real resources to guide me. I made mistakes, I struggled, and I often felt lost. But I loved him dearly and did my best. Looking back, I wish I had the knowledge and confidence I have now. That’s why I create the resources I do today—to help pig owners avoid the pitfalls I faced and enjoy their pigs with confidence.

Oscar’s life and everything he taught me continue to inspire me every day. ❤️

🐷 Is your pig eating too much? Overfeeding can lead to serious health problems, but it's easy to avoid with the right approach.

Here are the top 3 ways pigs accidentally get overfed:
1. Choosing the wrong kind of food: Dog food, cat food, chicken feed, and grower feeds are NOT for pigs. These can pack on unhealthy weight. Always stick to diets made for mini pigs.

2. Using a livestock scoop: These scoops are too imprecise. Use a kitchen measuring cup (¼ cup, ½ cup, or 1 cup) to ensure accurate portions based on your pig's nutritional needs.

3. Too much grazing: Unlimited grass access-especially sugary morning grass-can cause rapid weight gain and bloating. Controlled grazing is key!

I don’t step in to feed a piglet unless it’s absolutely necessary. 🐷💞 The piglet you see in this photo is Frosty, a little runt who wasn’t thriving because she was being squeezed out during feeding times.

To help her catch up, I decided to step in and offer supplemental feeds using pan feeding. Frosty still spends plenty of time with her mom and siblings—I just pull her out a couple of times a day for a little extra nutrition.

Here’s why I choose pan feeding over bottle-feeding:
🛡️ It’s safer for piglets and reduces the risk of aspiration pneumonia.
🌟 It’s less work and stress for us!

Did you know pigs aren’t fully grown until they’re FIVE years old? 🐷

Many people assume pigs stop growing at one year old, but that’s a myth! Their growth slows after their first year, but they continue developing in size, shape, and weight well into their fifth year.

Understanding this is crucial for planning your pig’s diet, space, and overall care. Proper expectations mean happier pigs and prepared pig parents! 🐽

Pig parents, let's talk real talk! Are you 100% sure your pig is thriving? Or could you be dealing with hidden problems without even knowing it? 🐷

Here's the thing:

That's why I create resources for pig families. They are packed with expert tips, resources, and tools to help YOU become the confident pig parent your pig deserves.

From behavior hacks to seasonal boredom busters, this is the roadmap you need to take your pig parenting to the next level.
