Mini Pigs must always have a suitable shelter within a safe and secure enclosure. They need constant access to clean water to stay hydrated and healthy. In hot weather, it's crucial to provide them with a play pool and a fan to help keep them cool. Pigs also enjoy a mud pit, which aids in regulating their body temperature. Since pigs do not sweat, they have no natural way to cool themselves. Without access to water at all times, a pig can easily become overheated or even suffer from toxicity, leading to serious health problems or death.

 

In colder weather, pigs need a well-insulated house to stay warm, as they lack fur to protect them from the cold. The shelter should be draft-free and include a heat lamp, dry blankets, or straw for extra warmth. As with hot weather, they must always have access to clean water to remain hydrated and healthy.

 

By meeting these essential needs, you will ensure your Mini Pig stays comfortable, healthy, and happy throughout every season.
