Question
I Have A four month old female royal dandie. I was just wondering on average what should she weight at four months old? She is not overweight. She weights at 14 pounds,And i was told that she was not suppose to go over 30pounds when she is full grown.
Thank you
Elizabeth

Answer
Hello,
The weight of any pig depends on several things.
Genetic background, feeding program, environment, exercise and general care.
Another issue now it that many breeders and other people are claiming that their pigs are Royal Dandies.  I get calls everyday about this problem with counterfeit Royal Dandies.
There is only one breeder who has true Royal Dandies and that is myself. If you have purchased one or been given one from any other source you can contact me directly from my web site at royaldandie.com.  I have records on all of my piglets and can let you know if you actually have a Royal Dandie or a counterfeit.
If you write to me I will be happy to help you.
