Pigs; they’re adorable, loveable and always getting into something. What would a picture of a pig be without a snout covered in mud? Whether they’re full-sized pigs or potbellied pigs, caring for these large and vocal animals is a full-time job. Cedar Row has 10 full-size pigs and 7 potbellied pigs along with all the […]
