Mini Horses
Herd Master
Agree with others......remember NO SWEAT, need shade & mud holes. NO RAW SOY.
I have mini horses and the pigs did not phase them BUT, they are quite used to a lot of unusual happenings. However, a large hog CAN be a probem, as another pointed out. My pigs were AGHs, so small and easy temperament. Being a solo to use the pork, I chose the smaller animal. Meat was great, just a lot less of it. LOL While they had their own enclosure, once in a while the pigs would get out and wander back to old haunts, going thru the pasture....only issue, freshly discing as they went.
Pigs, I have found, are very respectful of hot wire. Train them to it -- top of fence for the horses keeps them off the divider fence, low for pigs keeps them inside their fence. Pigs are VERY strong -- I mean a short legged tank -- they can easily push anything they want and they like to root under and lift. They are also VERY smart.
