Sweet piggy, never mind the stains they just add to the character. I've got a half white half black piggy, his white back leg is often yellow!

Aha, yes! I've always found odd coloured stains on my white piggies. They're also the messiest when eating food; Poglet always looks like she has dribbled everywhere as the food stains her chin!
@piggieminder @Malice Same problems with Kasper!
When he eats anything coloured he ends up looking like he's mauled something with his teeth lol

Yes! My girl Dolly has a lot of white on her and I always see green, red and orange stains on her from peppers and other veggies. I do wonder how she manages to get the stains where they are sometimes though!

Lucky Captain Jack is a very clean boy, (my lovely fluffy in my avatar), but then again his wife pig is a bit of a posh pig so he's trying to keep up with her! LOL
at least white almost hides the really filthy stains...
My personal favourite (and fudges), is when she retrieves a poop from her bottom, has a good munch.. Then proceeds to have a wee nibble at her back as its itchy.. And hey presto- brown smudges on the white coat!
That possibly explains why Kasper always has brown marks there
She gets green marks there too after scratching after eating veg or hay!

Yep. Percy often looks like a vampire after eating cherries, capsicum or particularly tasty carrots.
@AlbiePercy Do you ever think that he has ended up hurting himself? I do

watermelon is great for producing red sticky dribble chins! And the way my two shelties eat parsley, getting all excited and cramming it in at top speed, means they sometimes get green chins from that too. Messy little nibblers!

Albie and Percy won't eat parsley (fussy critters!) It can sit there all day and they won't look twice at it. My first rainbow pig Eddie would sniff that stuff out... He'd eat it by the bucket load if he was allowed to! Silverbeet on the other hand... the supermarket people must think we eat crazy amounts of it with what we buy for pigglies!
