Micro Pigs make fantastic pets if looked after well, you should always be sure this is the pet for you. You can never ask too many questions. They are intelligent, friendly and can even be taught tricks like dogs.

Micro pigs should be bought in pairs, unless you have a dog or other animal living in your home, a micro pig will be miserable if alone without a mate (must be another pet if not buying a pair). This is not us trying to sell more than one pig as we do not need to, demand is so high for them, it is genuinely in the best interest of the pig to be kept in pairs. Remember they are not pets for children they will be friendly with children but like any animal bought into the home if you have young children that may want to climb all over the pig it could cause the pig to get grumpy, so adult supervision is a must.

You need a carrier with straw in the bottom, if you prefer you can put a blanket in the bottom of the carrier. If it's a long journey home provide water for your micro pig, your baby will not need food until you get home. Remember your new baby will be tiny.

You should confine your new micro pig/pigs to a smallish area whilst they get used to new surroundings and people, gradually you can allow them more roaming (normally 2-3 days).

You should ensure that your baby pig is kept warm and has no draughts, plenty of straw this is including if your baby is going in an outside shed etc, a snuggle safe might be an idea (it heats in the microwave and stays warm for about 8 hours)

We feed all our micro pigs and piglets on sow nuts for pigs, these contain all the essential vitamins and minerals to keep your new baby healthy, they are also non-fattening, we will of course be providing you with a 25 kilo bag this will see you through around 3-4 weeks. Ask your breeder to recommend places to buy sow nuts. They will last around 3-4 weeks so you will need to keep them fresh.

To start with a handful of sow nuts will be sufficient a baby micro pig does not need a lot of food, as he/she grows older they will eat around half a dog bowl of the sow nuts, they only need feeding once per day and morning is best. You can give your pig small treats but don't overdo it and try and stick to low fat treats. Do not feed your pig any meat products, anything with high salt content. For example you can give your new piglet fruit, bread, and vegetables. Pigs like dogs will respond well to food given as a reward. Please do not over feed your baby micro pig, they will get fat!

Your new micro piglet should have fresh water available to him/her at all times. We are currently using automatic water feeders and they work very well for our micro piggies.

I have cut the end off of 2 fingers at work how much compensation am i likely to get?

i was working on my own. fixing a chain feeder on a chicken farm. i have never been trained to work on these feeders that have a automatic timer. i have been trained on feeders that are off untill they are switched on.

Depends on your company, their insurance, and your worker's comp benefits. Get a lawyer.
