Micro pigs

The main selling point of Britain's latest must-have pet is in the name - micro pig.

They certainly look cute, but these little piggies have found themselves in the middle of a big mud-slinging row.

It seems they are not as micro as their breeder has been claiming.

Watch the video for the full report.

that is very mis leading showing their own large kunes on the TV as if they are the large micro pigs referred to, sounds like sour grapes to me, very bad representation, did you notice the lady had piglets running around so is a breeder herself. they didnt even put a micro pig on to show people, many of these people have not done their research properly, that being said it is about time the advertising of these pigs at 12-16" was stoped, as decent breeders wont have a problem with this. We bought ours from a farm local to us before they were famous and are very happy with the size, we have now had them for over 2 and a half years.
