Title: Kune boar to large sow?
Post by: Russpig on March 07, 2025, 07:32:32 am

Can a male kune kune successfully mate with a larger breed sow such as Gos or saddleback? Or would he be too small?

No experience of this with mismatched piggies, but with mismatched sheep, all they required was some uneven ground.  So he could basically stand on a box!   :D

Willies generally find a way, if a way can be found ;) 

But the anatomy is different with pigs, they have to achieve a lock.  I don't know if smaller breeds have shorter equipment, if so then that could possibly be an issue.
