IRON AGE PIGS
Iron Age pigs are a cross between wild boar and another very old breed called Tamworth. They are friendly like the Tamworth but strong-willed like wild boar. They are hardy so are happy to live outside. They look like pigs from ancient times, which we see in Iron Age drawings. Tamworth are descended from the Irish Grazier. They are super energetic and love to run and play. Iron Age pigs like to run and play too.

The kunekune is the ideal pet pig. They are smaller than other pigs – though they still grow quite big! Their name, pronounced ‘cooney cooney’, means ‘round and fat’. They don’t need loads of food and easily make friends with people, pets and other livestock. They don’t dig like other pigs, because they have smaller noses – they prefer to graze grass and even live happily in a household garden (so long as they have some shelter).
