Is my (not so) minipig pregnant or just a fatass

[Galinidus]

I got 2 mini pigs in sept or October. They were about 3 months old when they got here. A male and a female. Now obviously they had sexy time together and the lady pig started getting fatter.. The boy piggy unfortunately dissapeared and never came back . It was at a time, when girl piggy was getting a lot fatter and no longer was letting him Have any sexy time. Now im not sure if it was because she was no longer attracted to him (joke) or if she was already pregnant. But what happened is the male one bust his way out of his pen and never came back, hopefully went to find himself a wild boar, but also around the same time a dead pig was found by a road nearby and collected by the council (very sad). This happened on the 26th of feb. And now im left with a super fat pig(in the nicest way possible), and i really hope she is pregnant and not just super fat. Hopefully boy piggy has spread his genes and we should get baby piggies soon. Can anyone tell me by the photos if this pig is pregnant? Sometimes i can feel stuff inside her belly, but im not sure if its a baby pig, or just food her boobs sseem to b a bit bigger at the Back, but front ones arent too big(ive included pics of ger boobs too) thank you xxx

Well if you let an intact female live any amount of time with an intact male and they were having a "sexy time" then it's about 99% chance she's pregnant.
Congrats on your preteen piggy being knocked up.

Mini pigs start reproducing at 3 months. She is 7 months

And some girls start puberty at the age of 10 but that don't mean they should start having babies.
Mini pigs typically reach half their adult size by 1 year of age and can take up to 5 years to reach their maximum size.
Seems kinda cruel to make them start reproducing at 3, 4 or even 7 months of age.
Your pig, your choice though.

It wasnt my choice i didnt make them do it, i just got 2 piglets that were probably gonna end up getting eaten or kept in a tiny enclosure, gave them a huge piece of land to roam freely, and nature run its course. So cruel of me

So were they also siblings?

She looks pregnant to me, although you never really can tell by pics, but I’d be willing to bet she’s pregnant.

like i said, yes i put "intact" pigs. (I dont believe in cutting things off animals, i want them to be as free and as wild as possible) thats why they run around freely on the land, the chickens the goose, the pigs. You're talking as if in nature this wouldnt happen anyway. Boars breed with siblings and they start breeding at 3 months of age. If not younger. So im not forcing anything on them, no castration, nothing, i want them to have a free life, as opposed to a life they would have had, had i not taken them, they would have probably been forcibly bred and eaten, at a young age, them and all their babies annd kept in a 30m2 closed pen which i also dont believe in. Shes very happy. And in no way mistreated. I had done research before geting a boy and a girl, and nowhere did i find there would be problems if they bred. It happens all the time in nature.

The internet tells me a pig is pregnant for "3 months, 3 weeks, and 3 days."

You can figure the earliest possible due date (based on when you got them) and the latest possible due date (based on when he went missing)--any piglets would be expected within that time window.

If there's no piglets by 4 months after he disappeared, then she probably was not pregnant
