I have a wooly pig - anyone know what kind he is?

Following on from my piggie bereavements, I have adopted a lovely little wooly pig from a local rescue drool I don't think they normally take in piggies so they don't know much about them and weren't sure what kind of pig he is - I think texel?

Here he is - his name is Caspar as his lovely little bonding buddy's name is Spook x)

Congratulations, he is absolutely gorgeous! x)drool

He does look like he could be a texel. Have they cut his hair or is he just a youngster? Mine had short hair when they were young but not quite as curly as Caspar's.

thank you he is only a baby so that is probs why his hair is short

Depends how old he is, at 10 weeks my texel had quite long hair already! It's hard to tell. I thought maybe swiss but he's a bit curly for that! Maybe he is a mix of different things - regardless though he is very cute and he has gorgeous colouring!

So did i, the hair on his head stands like a swiss but he;s to curly whirly at the bottom! Either way he's a gorgeous little pig-pog

I had a look at all the long-haired/textured coat types and none of them look like him - a unique-piggie he must be drool
