Kunekunes Wattles

[misfitmorgan]

I'm in Oregon. Had to drive 2 hours to get our piggies but they were cheap. Only $60 for the wattled female--and the owner was surprised that nobody snatched her up before me.
The male was at a different farm. He was from a litter of boys. Only cost me $40.

So $100 for a (future) breeding pair of pure Kunes!

Though I did realize the other day, that by the time they're old enough to breed and she actually gives birth it's going to be 2022!

Congrats on your kunekune's, they are super cute. I know kunekune are slow growing and not suppose to bred until like 9 month but regular pigs are not suppose to breed until 6 months and i've seen sows birth at almost 8 months old. If they are housed together the male will bred her the second she comes into heat no matter age. Just something to keep in mind.

If a KuneKune doesn't have Wattles, does that mean it's not really a KuneKune?

I'm picking up a female tomorrow and I saw in the picture that she has wattles. I'm also going to pick out a male from a different breeder, but I can't see any wattles on any of the pictures.

Do all KuneKunes have wattles?

Edit because apparently I can't spell wattles. Lol

Not all KuneKunes have wattles.
