Definitely no expert, but we wanted paddock clearing and didn't fancy having to suncream their ears! We went with Liz's advice to get a pig that gives you the tingle factor! Bear in mind something has to get you out in the rain to feed and check up on them, so if you like them, it makes it easy! Personally, I don't like pink pigs, but Tamworths, with their brown eyes and ginger hair, are fab! I am also a pork convert, having not eaten pork since I was a child!
Lix also advised us to get boars, they don't need to be castrated cos you won't be keeping them long enough for them to become hormonal, and it means you can do the deed, knowing there's no alternative. Also, have to admit that I haven't tried any other, so I would want to know what people's favourite is from what they've tried!
