[@sourcreamshawty]

When I had to show my pig at fair I got grand champion and I was so proud....but the worst part was when I sold him because we all know where he went...

[@claytations]

Amanda The Pickle Sometimes the grand champions are used for breading instead of bacon.

[@kadengaither2870]

Clayton Hull it is spelled breeding not breading and it will not be used for breeding if it's a barrow

[@jakolby6511]

Kaden Gaither you can show boars can you? I show August 11

[@kaylinjohnson1602]

So what do you do if your pig dosent listen at all and you cant get him to walk

[@ameliawalicki2995]

i’m asking the same thing

[@Piggy_pals]

Try walking them along a fence and staying near their head. This keeps them from running so that you can actually train them. Of course as they learn you can start walking them off the fence and moving yourself back. This is just what I do! ❤❤

[@lauren-ir3sz]

Yikes. All my training with my pigs went to nothing when I left for a 4 day vacation, and now I gotta train them for my showmanship in less than a week

[@reese6080]

Gurl same but my vacay was a week and fair is in less than a month and I don’t know what to do

[@reese6080]

And one of my pigs will not go out of the barn and barley walks in the barn

[@qxeenbaker1175]

@@reese6080 how’d it go, I’m in the same situation right now 🤣

[@Poppieparty]

Their chubby butts are so cute. 😅😊

[@kaitlynbrockman2254]

My pig does not want to walk

[@skylarschoenecker8238]

Use the whip around his stomach

[@Saffrongamingwert]

do you guys use the BIG pigs to ride?

[@todayiglowup4286]

i really hope these pigs are treated nicely

[@Trump-ze2xb]

Bro look at how they look. That white barrow is *immaculate*

[@austinreiter2305]

stop listening to PETA

[@reiswiersema9695]

Doing my fist pig any advice

[@ethanworks9917]

I don’t know what a fist pig is

[@gryffuscze]

I always wondered - are you penalized for smiling in the competition? I can understand the eye contact rule to increase difficulty, but why everyone looks so angry at the competitions? Also, is there any age limit for competition? I mostly see kids doing that and I wonder why. This is so bizzare sport, just like hobby horsing xD

[@trentongober267]

My pig will not stop putting and pays no attention to the whip she likes to back up and ran away and no matter what I do she doesn't listen

[@texastwister6988]

Pig whips are total sadistic abuse!! 😈😠 Take a few hits yourself on bare skin.

[@lukedesalvo6963]

@@texastwister6988 if you know how to use them no they are not a light tap is ok just not super hard taps and there are tests that make sure your not abusing your animal. Show pigs have a lot better life than most regular pigs do because they are brushed on loved on walked out of their pen and it is easy to focus on a hog or two to make sure they are doing very well.

[@fishingwithhayden3967]

I show tomorrow

[@sexyredneck1981]

How do you keep your pig from running?

[@WeaverLivestock]

Belinda, sometimes even the best trained pigs run. Our best advice is to make sure you react calmly and in a reserved manner. Walk up to your pig and start to redirect using you whip or pipe of choice. When starting out, try working your hog in smaller confined area until they get accustomed to the whip or pipe. Once that happens, you can move them to a larger area. Just remember that your reaction to them running plays a big factor, so always stay calm and never chase them. Thanks for the great question and for watching!

[@jakolby6511]

I have a pig that runs, or at least it used to. All I did was stay by its side letting it know it can’t get away from me

[@Lawncare777]

I take my whip and lightly tap their face (between the ears) and they slow down, just remember to be easy

[@austinreiter2305]

Those pigs look like Grand Champion pigs

[@michelesannes9700]

I seen them touch their pigs many times and your not allowed to touch your pigs

[@logan.arriola6981]

My pig won't listen

[@texastwister6988]

Well don't whip them..😓

[@mobstercrow7515]
