So back to talk about my baby piggy again the story so far a lady had a litter of babys and had left the boys in with the girls until they were just over 4 weeks so a possible pregnancy.
She weighed 450g about 4 weeks ago and is now 600g how is that sounding?

I spoke to a vet last time i weighed her who said its unlikely she is pregnant.
I haven't got her with me yet wanted to wait until i knew for sure and if she is pregnant i will take her after her babys are grown up with any females she has.

She would be around 7 weeks pregnant by now so would i be able to tell?

Her tummy is bigish but not huge i can feel kind of a lump either side of her tummy and her tummy feels diffrent to sparkles but she is older.

So anyway is 150g a lot to put on around this age or does it sound about right?
 
That sounds ok, you really cannot tell, but shes on the boardline for excess weight gain, I'm afraid you will have to wait it out. It can be hard to tell especially if she were to only have one pup. Posting a picture from above at the moment, some of the more experienced members may be able to tell. Baby pigs usually feel like small little balls either side of the abdomen, but please be careful feeling mum if she is pregnant.
