Mmm Potbelly pigs are delicious! You should see if they also have turkeys (for thanksgiving) — sort of a 2 for 1 deal!

These people proabably sell the smallest pot bellies, they are meant for indoor. They are located in Oregon, USA so I dont know. Look at all there info on the website. Good Luck! 🙂
I don’t know where you can find a pig but I can give you some info about them. The Micro, Royal Dandie, Teacup pigs are a scam. They still end up weighing about 100lbs. Please just get a regular pot bellied pig.
Mcally is right – “miniature” pigs are very unreliable as far as predicting the size of the adult pig. It doesnt’ take much time to search the net and find a lot of people who are trying to find homes for their 300lb pigs who originally purchased them after being told they would grow to no bigger than 50lb!
If you look on the websites of any reliable pig breeder they will say themselves that miniature pigs that stay small are really more a matter of luck than breeding. Two small pigs can breed large offspring – there is no reliablity. If you want to purchase a pig of any type, you should prepare for the worst case scenario – that it will grow to regular size – ie, end up weighing 3 or 4 times what you do. You need to be able to house this animal appropriately and be physically able to handle a large, intelligent animal. Pigs are often stubborn, pushy, destructive and sometimes even aggressive. They rarely stay the “size of a beagle” as is sometimes advertised, so make sure you have REALISTIC expectations BEFORE you purchase one.
I was interested in buying a pig a few years ago, but after researching thoroughly, I thought better of it and got a cat instead. Glad I did – I’ve heard a lot of stories from people in difficult situations with their “miniatures” that have turned into massive problems…literally.
