The Teacup Pig Series is a complete illustrated guide for owners and breeders of pet pigs, in six parts.
It gives information and stories gleaned over nearly 20 years of breeding them and observing them in the wild, and is illustrated with so many beautiful colour photos that it's almost a comic book! People not intending to get a pet pig will still love looking at all the photos! (People intending to get a piglet might change their minds after seeing the cover photo of book 4, which is the stuff of nightmares! Look inside book one's cover to see those of the other books.)
Everything about miniature pet pigs is explained, including what 'teacup', 'micro', 'nano', 'pocket', 'mini', 'potbelly' or 'potbellied' pigs are; their size; what they are like in the wild and as pets; where to find honest breeders and avoid fraudsters; how to choose and rear piglets; how to introduce them to other pets and teach toilet manners; what their needs are to be happy; causes and remedies of behavioural problems; understanding pig 'language'; communicating and training; food and health; and breeding these little pigs.
Book one gives a unique insight into the nature of these little pigs in Nature!Understanding them and their needs is important so that we can make them happy and loving members of our families, and enjoy them quietly plodding in our lives for many years. Not understanding them can cause unhappiness and abnormal aggression that can end in disaster for all, and a short stay in your home for your piglet.
Find out why miniature pigs are becoming such popular pets - why so many people are falling for their charms, and why they are so ideal for town houses with only small gardens.
Find out what 'teacup pigs' are, what the smallest pigs in the world are, and how to find them.
Learn how to see the difference between piglets and adults, and when they are being starved to look small.
Find out how to sift honest breeders from the mulch of fraudsters out there selling non-existent pigs.
And enjoy the book!
