Question
i have a little micro min pig that we just got go i dont know much about pigs, well the pet kind that is. but i want Wilber to be a breed pig but he to little how do i work with him to stop humping so that my kids and me dont get hurt.  also he has really dry skin can i put baby lotion on him

Answer
Hello,
He will continue this behavior until he is neutered.
These little pigs are either neutered and pets or un-neutered and breeders.....can't have it both ways.
His dry skin could mean he needs to be wormed.  If he is scratching himself on things he also probably has mites which can spread to humans as well.
