A himi's points are naturally dark. Actually, they darken as they get older. Are you sure you've got a full himi?

I wouldn't dye them in any way.

As they age, they darken. I would say that once they are around 6 months old their points are not going to get any darker and there isn't anything you can do about it.

Also, the himi pattern is temperature sensitive, so if the environment is too hot, the points will lighten. But don't keep your pig in a super cold place either to try to darken its points.
