We have a highland cow with big horns who bucks and kicks when she gets excited. Man these animals sometimes scare the shit out of me 🤣
Also have a jersey who is taller than me and dumb as bricks, sweet guy but I'm always afraid he'll just crush me against a fence.
They're gentle and simple most the time but damn powerful.
Yep, I’ll ride that boar bareback sometimes if he’s a distance from fences and trees. He’s so smart though twice and he sees me coming every time. Did you know that pigs have hybrid eyesight with some attributes from grazing animals, nearly 360 degree coverage, and a predator binocular overlap in front with some degree of depth perception? Amazing animals really, but aren’t they all?
I've got two pigs. Both are pot bellies, one is probably 100 lbs and one is like 200. Again given up by people who though a pig would be a good apartment pet. They might be as smart as dogs in a lot of way, very trainable, smart, but. Still too much animal.
And that scream. That's a whole different beast to a dog barking.
Yep, I wear ear protection when I go up to feed. Do you ferment their feed at all? A five day covered bucket ferment can provide the power of rumination to your mono gastric pigs!
