My micro pot belly is pregnant. This is her first time so we have been learning a lot and have a friends who has also had PBPs but she has only had them once. We have been in contact with a breeder friend of hers but still have some questions.
We have the male , who is about 1/2 the size of the female, and they have been kept together. We have seen them breed several times over a few months so are not 100% sure when she got bred. We have a barn camera on her, and are able to spend a lot of time with her so we wont miss her farrowing. We have birthed out many different types of animals from horses to goats and dogs, seems p[igs will be more like dogs than anything.
If anyone has noticed , we would like to know about how far along your pig was when you started to feel the piglets move. We have been feeling them move ( easily) for several days to a week now and we have a doppler and can clearly hear heartbeats.
We have noticed the last few days her vulva is starting to relax a bit, getting a tad bit swollen. Her milk bag isnt real big but starting. Nothing can be expressed yet. The breeder told us she is prolly getting close and some dont get milk til after they farrow. We are prepared incase she goes now or if she holds on for another couple of months.
She is a super sweet girl, loves attention. We have a spot set up just for her with the barn cam to have her piglets where the male cant bother her. I believe we have all opur bases covered, just wish we knew for sure when she is due.
