So, does he listen to you? Like, come when he's called or stop doing something when you yell at him?

@Queenychi179 This makes me giggle. The answer is yes and no. Yes, he does come when called and does listen quite well (especially if you mention 'treats'). However, if he is doing something naughty he really doesn't care how loud or forceful you are yelling, that just makes him be naughty faster and run with whatever he has. We use a squirt bottle to discipline since yelling doesn't work. :) Naughty pig.

@ilovemydog81 Hamlet was $800 including shipping. I bought him from Texas Tiny Pigs. They are great!

@supermale Hamlet eats NutriSource Mini Pig Food. I buy it at Tractor Supply Co.

@Horseluver1034 Haven't really figured out a definition of teacup versus mini versus micro, etc. He is a 'miniature' pig. On the larger end of the spectrum of teacup pigs from what I understand.

@fayiebreanna He is about 20 months in this video. He weighs about 53 pounds. He is 3/4 Juliani and 1/4 Vietnamese Potbelly. Texas Tiny Pigs is great! I think they do a great job.
