Glad this got bumped back up.

My experience now with the pot belly pigs is that they take FAR too long to mature. Ours are around six months now I just weighed them to de-worm at 40lbs. I might try a cross bred with PBPs in the future, for now we're going in with another farmer to raise pigs at his place as he's got the space Smiley.
