Of course the curiosity in me told me to look on Craigslist to see if any pigs were for sale. Of course I saw single pigs in incredibly small cages. I would love to save one of them, but my 2x4 c and c cage with a 2 x 2 loft is only suitable for my two boys. I feel so bad for the poor baby’s. I hope they go to a good home.
 
I always worry about those poor pigs :( I got my two boars from an ad like that and the poor things were in waaaayyy too small of a cage, underweight with bite marks on their backs and ears from fighting (probably over food) they get along fine now, really shows what a difference giving them the space and food they need really makes.

Heres to hopimg those piggies find good homes!

Also welcome to the forum :wel:
 
I do the same thing and I am definitely at capacity with 7 piggies!
 
I would recommend not looking. What you could be seeing is the produce of breeders and if that's the case are you changing the situation? For the piggy you take in you will be but it won't take a breeder long to pop a baby in its place in the same cramped cage. I never go on freead sites now for that reason
