Marley & Elvira are a bonded pair of intact females who need a new home with secure fencing. They have escaped their enclosure. Marley is the smaller pig at around 85lbs, while Elvira is around 130lbs. They do fine with kids and other animals like dogs & cats. (Dogs and pigs should always be supervised and never left alone when together.) Marley is playful and happy, while Elvira is not as personable and is definitely the boss. Neither are mean.
Transportation is not available, so the adopter will need to make arrangements.
These pigs are not altered so arrangements must be made to spay prior to adoption. Intact pigs do not make the best companion animals. Spaying prevents unwanted litters, curbs behavior problems, and prevents uterine tumors. Altering piggies when they're young is safer and usually less expensive than waiting until it becomes a problem or a medical emergency. They will likely need to be dieted before a vet can safely spay them.
