how much do i sell the pigs, or how can i find out how much they are worth.

Question
my name is scotty johnston, i have or my wife and i have two pot belly pigs, we want to sell them. i love them, but they chew up everything, yard, they come into house and eat all the stuff they get there hands on. how do i find out how much they are worth, is there a website that i can see how much they are worth, do i take picture and put it on craigslist? any answers would be great.  

Answer
Their market value depends upon several things, most of all their ages. A pig over 9-11 weeks of age is not really considered a tiny  piglet anymore, so would be harder to sell.
If they are spayed and neutered, and registered, those factors would drive the price up. Also if they are potty trained, well mannered, and have their shots and are wormed. Spotted or colorful pigs seem to sell faster than plain black. But if they are cute, everybody loves a baby pig!
    Pig proofing your house and yard could be a solution.....if you sell them, or even give them away, often they end up in the hands of people who roast them, use them to train dogs to kill boars with, or just simply don't take care of them.
Also, what part of the country you are from makes a big difference.
There is a HUGE surplus of unwanted miniature pigs in FL, CA, and TX.
Sanctuaries try and deal with pigs that have been abandoned.
Perhaps you have a friend who would like them?
The piglets (?) may just be overly playful right now.
As they age, what they do best is eat and sleep!
They can and will  breed at 3 months if they are not spayed or neutered, so be careful! Amazing, isn't it?
Good luck,
