Matthew + Bacon

I am Matthew and I am 8 years old. This is Bacon, my second pig I have trained and the one I am taking to fair to show! Bacon is a crossbreed and a guilt. She loves treats, belly rubs and baths! She also loves food and is bigger than my first pig I took to fair. She has gained muscle in the areas she needs to fill out nice.

Bacon has been a lot of fun, work and I have learned a lot about pigs. They take a lot of work to get them to weight, a lot of pen cleaning and lots of walking to get her to do what I want her to do. It has taught me a lot about mental strength because animals can be stubborn.

You can support me and my project a few ways:
