The hair on Dahlia's feet grows backwards and swirly and she seems to have less hair on her feet than my other pigs have (although she's still young, more could grow in.) Do your absyssinians and aby crosses also have little goblin toes? It's been so many years since we had an abyssinian that I really don't remember what her feet were like!

I've had a few Abys over the years and I can't really remember them having hairless feet. I've just had a look at Fizz, he has long hair over his toes. I remembered as soon as I looked it was difficult to see to cut his nails. It's bad enough he has black nails without the hair in the way.
Dahlia is beautiful.
 
She has little naked toes! Maybe it's just been awhile since I had a pig with pink toes? Thought the clear nails are a bonus, I didn't realize how much easier they are to clip until I ended up with two pigs with black/brown nails at the same time!
 
My Ozzy is an aby and he doesn’t have much fur on his front feet, his nails are also a nightmare! He has some sweet little pink ones and then a few curly ones that go right under :yikes:
 
When I first got Pebble I also said his feet looked different to my other piggies.
I think Dahlia's toes look... knobbier? It's hard to explain. They're also proportionately big because she still young, she may grow into them, but when my daughter picked her out I thought, "You're cute, but those are some gnarly feet!" LOL!

That’s exactly how I felt about Holly‘s feet. Longer and nobblier than other feet probably because the lack of hair accentuates that.
