U may ask why.cause my kids asked if we could save them.and I gave in.we don't need to kill every pig in tx.I wouldn't have anything to do with all my dogs.

So is that like the hand raised version of veal? Young and tender.

You're in trouble if the wife and kids have named them.

Good deal. It's a valuable lesson for the kids. Yes there is a pig problem. But I try to teach my children to have more respect for the animals we hunt than just killing something. I think it's a great thing. But they would end up on the dinner table at my house, and I have told my kids just that.

That piglet wouldn't wind up on the dinner table at my house. It would just be a pet.
That's going to be a very unique experience that your kids have and those memories will last a lifetime. They apparently gentle very easily and will romp, run and jump in the bed of your pickup like a dog. Spay/neuter for sure, though. (unless, assuming female, you want to use her as a "judas pig" when she goes into heat)
