For our girl

1. Ambient temperature is 78 and basking is 90.

2. Ask the breeder or buy from a respected breeder. Hogs come in different shades so it would be hard to tell just by looking at one, especially a baby.

3. Our female is about 2.5 years old and she is pushing 5ft long. Her growth has definitely slowed down and even if she reached 6ft, she still would be manageable for me (female) to handle on my own.

4. Ours is in a 40 gallon breeder and I expect she will stay in that as an adult.


We love our girl and expect you will love your hog as well!
