Default Pig Catchin'

Last year my dad and brother were out rattlesnake hunting when they came up on a couple baby pigs. My brother was 14 at the time and decided he was going to chase them down and take them home. And he did. They are so spoiled and well fed! Well, he was wearing his GoPro at the time and caught the chase on video. Just thought ya'll might enjoy!

They weren't too sure when they first caught them either but they called the game warden to be sure that what they found was legal to keep.

Other than puppies, there are few things as cute as a piglet! When I was a kid, elementary school, and lived on a farm, I wanted a piglet for a pet but my dad wouldn't let me play with my food.

Well I don't see them hitting the dinner table any time soon so I guess they'll stay companions. 😃

Thanks for the neat video.

We sometimes catch small pigs in our hog traps. We give them to folks who raise them for meat.

Be careful handling larger pigs. A 15-20 pound pig can put a hurting on the fingers.
