Potbellied pigs are fast-becoming popular pets in many American households. Breeders have been constantly trying to produce smaller pot-bellied pigs because they are more appealing to many pet owners.  

However, these miniature pigs do not always grow up to become tiny adult pigs. There are many cases when miniature piglets grow up to become 60-120 pound adults, thus you should be prepared to care for a pet that can possibly grow big when fully grown.

To have an idea about your pet’s adult size, see how big both his parents are at maturity. The pig’s growth spurt takes place during the first 9-12 months of life, and will gradually increase until it is about 2-3 years of age.  

Keep your pot-bellied pig healthy and active by bringing him regularly to a Merrillville veterinary clinic. You can get more information about pot-bellied and miniature pet pigs on this site.
