Thankfully, my little girl pulled through. I was pretty scared for a day or two, but she's thriving and growing along with her litter-mates. Thanks to everyone for your advice and support.:)
Thank you for the reply. I figured that she had done that. At least she is still very active. I was just starting them on pan feeding this morning and they dod pretty well---even her. I have been.mixing cereal with the formula, and will continue making if thicker.
I am bottle-feeding a litter of pbps due ill.They have all been doing wonderfully until.yesterday when one seemed to have breathing issues. She was worse this morning, and I got Tylan 50 to give her. I finally found a syringe with .01 on it, but she is really gasping for air---barely able to...
Sorry, I still haven't gotten around to posting the pics----I have to go to my hubby's office to do that with his computer.:P Anyway, the quads are doing really well just nursing from mom---she has a wonderful udder! They were all disbudded this weekend and the boys banded and all received...
I haven't been on here in a LONG time----I spilled milk meant for the cat on my laptop keyboard (last spring?) and haven't replaced it---but I just had to get to the library and post about my doe Flory's new babies! She delivered quads just last night---got done around midnight. Two are solid...

First off, your little girl should ALREADY have a separate pen from the boys--amale pot belly pig can breed at 8 weeks old! You do NOT want her to get pregnant at too young an age----you'll just end up with more problems than you want.
Here's what I do with my PBPs. I put the male and female...
I would find a buck that you know for sure is a full ND or a ND/Pygmy cross----jut like someone else stated. I bought a very small ND buck (his parents are both registered) for the very reason that I didn't want any of my girls to have a large baby and possibly die during kidding. I also have...
Just wondering what happened today...... I completely understand your decision on this. We have the same motto-----each of our livestock must have a purpose here---they are either for breeding, food or sold. Feel bad for Liam---but you are right, he's suffered enough.
