The breeder who breeds for this 4-H club has Teddies. She gives each child a young
GP to work with for the year. They get to keep the pig. If they want another one it can be bought from her or they can get it from another breeder or member. The breeder keeps up to 30
GP's. Her cages are metal and they stack on top of each other. I don't know the size. I have told her (in the past) the cages are to small and to check C&C cages. I don't think she has. She still breeds and is a main leader in 4-H. Her pigs are kept clean and live in a aircondiontioned room built just for them.
she also raises goats and birds. Her whole family is involved. She is perfectly or was content with the way it was. The
GP's are not pets.
It's a whole different way of thinking, like the ones who come on the site and try to change all of our minds. I changed my mind, my pigs are pets, my babies. I will continue to try to educate all of those I come in contact with, including this lady, tho I do not see her often.
