Even though they are often known as mini-pigs, most reach the size of a large Labrador when fully grown- that's not as big as farmyard pigs but still not what we would call mini!
The popularity of various breeds of minipigs has been growing since the early 1980s, and when cared for correctly, they can be very good pets, as they are affectionate, and very clever, with most researchers believing that they have on average the same level of intelligence as small children!
These pigs are the smallest breed of pig also known as Tea-Cup Pigs, or Micropigs
