ZACHARY is shy and sweet. He is a potbelly pig mix. He will likely be 80+ in size when full grown. he is about 5 months of age currently. He was abandoned on the streets with a group of pigs. He is a little under socialized and will need time and patience to build his confidence. <br/><br/>An ideal home will be one that is willing to give him time to build his trust. He si super cute and scruffy. He loves treats and takes them gently. Time to spend with him daily to allow him to learn that people are good. Food will be your best friend. <br/><br/>Please do your research before adopting and know that pigs are going to root, that's what they do. ZACHARY will all make a great pet with the right environment and commitment to socializing him. It would be best to have him together with another pig/piglet in a smaller space to begin.

EPIC Outreach's Adoption Policy
EPIC Outreach is committed to helping both pet pigs and people build a long-lasting happy and healthy relationship for the lifetime of the pig. EPIC serves to be a resource of information to help pet pig parents keep their pet pig for its lifetime. Occasionally EPIC will have pet pigs available for adoption. Each pig available will have specific needs and personalities. EPIC works primarily with animal control and government agencies who take in potbelly pigs and/or mixes that are strays, are confiscated from cruelty/hoarding situations, or are abandoned. Often the pigs have unknown histories. Each pig available for adoption will have been vetted and evaluated for health and behavior needs. Each pig’s home expectations will be shared transparently. Before you ADOPT Thank you for doing your research before adopting a pet pig. While pigs are clean and social, they do have emotional and physical needs to be met for a happy and healthy life. Before you ADOPT, please consider the following: A pet pig (potbelly and/or mix) can live 10-20 years and needs to be a lifetime commitment. Where do you live? If you live in a residential home have you checked county ordinances and your HOA. A county ordinance might allow a pet pig, but your HOA might say no. Do you have the time? Pigs love to have their mind stimulated. Without proper mental stimulation they can be destructive. Providing a pet pig with things to do is very important. For more information on how pigs make great pets please read this great article written by Founder Jessie Miller: PIGS MAKE GREAT PETS. Please also read the following about the basic care of a pet pig: LEARNING TO CARE FOR YOUR PET PIG. If you’re still interested in adopting a pet pig and you think you’re a great fit home for one of the available pigs listed below please email Jessie at epicanimals2015@gmail.com. EPIC Outreach’s adoption process is an OPEN CONCEPT and will start with a conversation and then arrange a meet and greet with your potential new pet pig. We look forward to meeting you and talking all things PIGS!
