Here's another reason to be an Anglophile: Micro Pigs.They are Britain's latest craze in the pet world and it's easy to see why: When piglets, they fit in the hollow of a tea cup. When full grown, they're only about a foot tall. Plus, they are great for people with pet allergies. If only the Obamas had gotten a Micro Pig. If only.
The London Telegraph reports on how breeders make the pigs so petite:
The pigs are crosses of Miniature Pot Bellied pigs with Tamworths, Kune Kunes and Gloucester Old Spots to create their tiny, colourful Micro Pigs, which are sold for between £195 and £700.
The size of the piglets get smaller with every litter with Peanut the piglet believed to be one of the tiniest adult pigs in Europe.
