00:00What kind of home is great for pigs?

00:15Miniature pot-bellied pigs flourish in a home where there's ample size backyard.

00:21They do need space to root, which is a natural pig behavior.

00:24Rooting is where they dig up tasty roots to supplement their diet and for exercise

00:30and stimulation, but rooting can be very destructive to your nicely manicured lawn, so homes with

00:37an HOA, a pig may not be the right pet for you.

00:43What kind of bedding do pigs like?

00:46Pigs like a clean, warm, dry bed, so make sure you change it out often.

00:50I like to use blankets or straw.

00:55Can pigs sweat?

00:57Pigs don't sweat, so they need some form of shade to protect themselves on hot, sunny

01:02days, such as a large doghouse or a playhouse, a shed, something large enough to accommodate

01:09their bodies.

01:13How significant is a fence for a pig?

01:16It's very significant.

01:17A fence is important for a pig because you want to be able to keep your pigs safe and

01:21secure in, and you want to keep predators out.

01:25And remember, pigs are very intelligent, and because of their tendency to root, they could

01:29dig their way out from under a fence.
