Look out for hogs and kisses now that micro-pig, Harley, has a new playmate.
Nine-month-old Poppy has moved into Harley’s den at the farm barn and is settling in well with the 18-month-old male.
Curator, Matt Lewis, said: “Harley hadn’t met any females before, but they seem to be getting along fine and are spending lots of time together in the paddock.”
Poppy was donated to DZG?by a local family who were unable to care for her when they moved house.
Matt added:?”Micro pigs do not make good house pets, and many so-called micro pigs end up growing much bigger than their owners anticipated.”
The smallest breed of pig, they weigh just nine ounces at birth.
