Five facts about the mother pigs.

Did you know mother pigs sing to their piglets when they’re feeding? Scientists think they do this to regulate milk production to make sure there are no milk hogs.

An average pig has a litter of 11. The recorded record is 17. However this is all I could find so it could be higher.

A mother pig can produce 30 ounces of milk a day. It is similar to cows milk but more watery and higher in fat content.

Pigs are very protective around their babies due to being a prey animal. So don’t aproach.

The final fact is that mother pigs will adopt piglets!
