cool (: im happy u found ur passion. and i really like pigs.
i know that media can represent farmers and stuff in the wrong light, so i dont necessarily think that every pig farmer is like that. so if u say u dont hurt them like some do on TV, i believe u c:

are the pigs brought up to be slaughtered for their meat, or are they just pets where u work?
They are born to be meat. sad but true
Do you think you’ll ever get tired of it or is it something you can see yourself doing forever?
Idk how long I will work with this. I love my pigs, and some how don’t want to leave them. So idk how long.

I love pigs. I went to school to learn about farm animals and other animals. So I can work as many things with animals. Zoo, farms, store and much more. But 4 years ago I got this work. I myself don’t eat much meat. 
I know maybe u wont trust me when I say that u see on tv is not how we do here. I can’t do any pain for the pig. When I did start at this place I did feel really mean and so. But when u learn and the pigs trust u. No problem.

Omg thats honestly so cool 

i always wonder if farmers get emotionally attached/form an emotional bond with their animals. Do u get attached to ur pigs? If so, how do u deal with the fact that they are gonna get slaughtered at some point? like isnt it hard to send a pig that u have basically raised from birth to the slaughterhouse? like how do u deal with that emotionally? 

I dont mean this in any type of criticizing way btw. Like im not trying to be like “HoW DOes iT FeEl To KiLL Ur PiGS MEAT IS MURDER” or shame/guilttrip u or anything like that im very neutral about this stuff im just genuinely curious bc i myself get very attached to animals and have no idea how i would handle it so id love to hear ur experience and ur perspective
I always get attached to the mama and her babies. Mama pig stay with us 6-7 years so that part is hard. Some mama is so lovely, some u can’t look at bc they are angry for no reason. haha. Hospital one time. 😇 
And ofc I fall for all the baby pigs. They are so cute and smarts and funny. But it was harder at the start. Now 4 years later u learn. I still love them. And want to take them home. But u learn how to control your feelings. 
Aaw. Yeah it makes sense that u learn how to deal with it after a while even if its tough in the beginning. I guess u just gotta focus on the fact that u gave them good, happy lives. i rly admire u for that. 
i used to ADORE pigs when i was a kid and would visit farms just so i could see the pigs so ur job is like my childhood dream lol
Pigs are smart. Like very smart. And amazing. Cute. And I want a mini pig as pet. But right now just fokus on work and make as much I can out of it.

Just pigs. Take care of them. Help them when they give birth and so on. 
And so everything around works fine too. ^^

I only like pigs. Now cow or chicken. Not my type of animal to work with. 
Idk if I will do this forever. Sofar 4 years with pigs. And idk how long I will stay.
I have a favo mama pig at work. She is amazing with her babies and so kind. And I fall for baby pigs that comes out with little brown on them. Most our pigs are black and white, white and grey. or black/white/grey.

Yes some have. Some need more food or less food than others. 

You kind of measure the fat on them. This is how you see if they are thin. On some u can see that they need more food, but some can be big and nice but still the thing I have to check the fat with show me she needs more food. 15 is normal. So if they are under that they need more food. It they are over. They can eat normal. ^^ I had 1 one time, she had 32.. She was BIG. It’s nothing bad. She did just eat much and had much bc she was BIG! haha. I wrote was. She is still alive ^^

I know omg they are one of the smartest animals there is right? Like i know for sure they are at least smarter than dogs. Honestly still one of my favorite animals. Ive also heard that they actually are one of the cleanest animals, contrary to popular belief. And yes they are super cute! And omg my biggest wish as a kid was to get a mini pig as a pet. I even had a name picked out for it. U know how most kids want a puppy or a pony? For me it was a pig lmao i was obsessed. I can totally see u getting one in the future when ur not as busy with work. U would be an amazing pig mommy
