Weight

Hi
Just a quick question about weight.
Just wondering what is a healthy weight for a 5 month old pig?
What weight average should a adult pig be?
Also what age is puberty in my boys.

Thanks for all your wonderful help on this site.

Re: Weight

My three boys weigh 2 lbs .5 oz, 1 lb 14.5 oz, and 1 lb 12 1/2 oz, they're roughly five months old, give or take a week. That's just an outline for you, all pigs are different.

Puberty is probably around 2-6 months, if they're five months now I'd suspect they're growing out of it

Re: Weight

Hi
Thank you for your replies.
my boys are 5 months old and weigh 2lb.1 and 2lb so they are ok on the weight side.
Puberty has hit so hopefully they will grow out of it soon.
