Juliana Mini Pigs
At Countryside Farm, we specialize in breeding Juliana mini pigs. We take pride in our own unique breeding program to create the smallest pigs possible while also producing healthy offspring. We can not promise a certain size or weight as diet and exercise, as well as the overall health of your pig, plays a huge part. However, we can give you a truthful size for parents and an estimated size for piglets. Our average adult pig weighs 35-55 lbs. and ranges 10-16 inches in height.
Common names for these small piglets are teacup, micro, nano and even pocket pigs even though these are made-up names used to describe a mini pig.
Our mini pigs make great pets, emotional support and companion animals! They are clean, almost odor free, litter box trained, like to play, love belly rubs & affection, can be leash trained, are extremely smart, and they love people and most other animals! More so, pigs are friendly and get along well with cats, dogs and children, making them an ideal companion for families readily prepared to welcome an exotic pet into their home.
According to experts, pigs are one of the smartest and cleanest domestic animals. Pig cognition studies have proven that pigs are quick learners — as quick as chimpanzees — and can memorize routines, learn tricks (jump hoops, bow and stand, spin, roll, play video games with joysticks and more) and be potty trained.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a mini pig walk on a leash?
Yes, you can use a harness on a mini pig and teach him or her to walk on the leash. It takes time and patience, but can absolutely be done!
How long do mini pigs live?
A mini pig can live anywhere from 12-15 years if kept nice and healthy, assuming there are no underlying health issues.
Are mini pigs hypo-allergenic?
Technically no. There is a small percentage of people who have reactions from mini pigs. However, most people, even if they are allergic to cats and dogs, do fine around mini pigs.

Can you potty train a mini pig?
Yes, our mini pigs come potty trained. However, you can read more about supplies you will need to instill that behavior in your new home here.
Who can watch my pig when I’m traveling?
Mini pigs love being around their owners. Miniature pigs are herd animals and they want to be with their “herd.” But, the occasional vacation is no problem! We recommend that all our customers visit Rover.com to find a pet sitter in your area.
Do mini pigs make good indoor pets?
Mini pigs make good indoor pets! However, they love to bask in the sun, root in the dirt and spend time outside. You should get a mini pig with the intention of providing both indoor and outdoor time. If a pig were kept strictly indoors, it would ultimately be a very unhappy pig. We need to fulfill them as a breed and give them what they truly need, not what we as people want.

Feeding
Our piglets are fed Nature's Best Organic Mini Pig Food, approximately ¼ cup twice daily at the time they leave our farm. Feeding amounts should gradually increase as your pig grows. Please refer to our feeding guide for recommended portions based on weight.
Fresh water should always be available. Introduce fruits and vegetables slowly, one at a time. Fruits should be limited due to their high sugar content.

Vet Care
We recommend finding a veterinarian experienced with mini pigs before bringing your piglet home. Establishing veterinary care early ensures you have someone available for routine care or emergencies. If you're local to our farm, we're happy to recommend veterinarians familiar with mini pigs.
Bringing Your Piglet Home
Our piglets are handled and socialized regularly, but transitioning to a new home can still be a big adjustment. It's completely normal for your piglet to be nervous or frightened at first as they become familiar with their new surroundings and family.
We recommend setting up a designated area for your piglet wit7thh a cozy dog bed, soft blankets, toys, food, water, and a litter box. Having their own space helps them feel secure while they settle in. Be sure to begin bonding with your piglet right away through patience, consistency, and positive interaction.
Weaning
Our piglets typically begin the weaning process around 6–7 weeks of age. Every piglet develops at its own pace, so weaning and pickup dates may vary. We prioritize the health and well-being of our piglets and do not promote bottle feeding, as it's important that our babies receive proper nutrition from their mother's milk. After weaning, we closely monitor each piglet to ensure they are eating independently and fully ready to transition to their new home before leaving our farm.

What makes us the piglet breeder to pick? Here at Countryside Farm, we put our animals first! Their care and health is our main concern. And we take great pride in our wonderful breeding stock.
We have taken the time to work carefully with our veterinarians over the years to build a fabulous program. We offer everything to the new piglet owner. When your baby goes home you have nothing left to worry about. Our precious babies also leave here dewormed and with the option for vaccination.

We feed our adult pigs a variety of fruit & vegetables in addition to their main diet with an added coat and skin supplement. We leave nothing to chance when it comes to the health of our beloved babies.

Care Packages
We do offer pig care packages that provide everything your new pet piglet needs for a comfortable and stress free transition.
*Please note: Items in care package may vary.*
Spay/Neuter & Breeding Rights
All advertised mini pig prices are for pets only and do not include breeding rights. Breeding rights are available for an additional fee. Please contact us for pricing and availability. Piglets purchased without breeding rights must be spayed or neutered and may not be used for breeding. Male piglets may be neutered before leaving our farm. Please provide at least 24 hours' advance notice if you would like your male piglet neutered prior to pickup. Female spaying must be arranged through a veterinarian.
Vaccinations & Deworming
All piglets receive ivermectin and Safeguard deworming treatments before leaving our farm. Additional treatments, including coccidia prevention, may be administered as needed. Vaccinations are available upon request. Each piglet goes home with a health record documenting treatments received.
Pickup/Boarding
Piglets are only released once they are fully weaned and ready for their new homes. Estimated pickup dates are not guaranteed and may change based on the piglet's health and development. Buyers will be notified when their piglet is ready for pickup. Pickup or transportation must be arranged within seven days of notification unless otherwise agreed upon. A boarding fee of $25 per day may apply after the seven-day period. Failure to arrange pickup may result in forfeiture of the deposit and reservation.
Size Guarantee
For close to a decade we've selectively bred our mini pigs for smaller size and consistent characteristics. While we can estimate adult size based on our bloodlines and breeding experience, no breeder can guarantee a pig's final adult weight or height. Proper nutrition, exercise, and overall care also play an important role in maintaining a healthy weight.
Potty Training
Our piglets begin litter-box training at an early age using pelletized bedding for horses and small animals, available at Tractor Supply.
We recommend starting your piglet in a smaller designated area with easy access to their litter box. As they become comfortable and consistent with their potty habits, you can gradually increase their space.
Moving to a new home may cause temporary accidents, so patience and consistency are important during the transition.
Note: It is important to check with city government regulations before bringing a pig into your home as a pet, as they are considered to be livestock according to the USDA. Many cities do not allow pet pigs inside the city limits. Please contact your local city office or look on their websites for animal ordinances, keeping in mind that a pet pig will most likely fall under their livestock regulations.
