Hi all! I am attaching a few pictures to see if some people who know more than myself think this girl is pregnant. She is about a year and a half old, exposure to a male who is only about 6 months old. She seems to have had a recent weight gain and nipple enlargement.

Any thoughts are appreciated!

Just on pictures I would say yes, she is bred. When was she exposed to the boar? Understand that a 6 month boar is fully mature sexually in 95% of the breeds. Most hogs are killed at 6 months and will weigh 150-250 lbs. What breed is she and what breed the boar?

Males should be removed from exposure to any female by the time they are 3-4 months old at most. How many on here have known of young ram lambs and young buck goats to get randy and try breeding after 3 months... pigs are not far behind. 95% of the males are not good "stud quality" animals... they should be castrated so that they do not breed and only good quality males are used for reproduction. Plus the disposition and attitude situation... no hormones floating around makes a much calmer and easier to handle animal.
