Mick
Kune Kune PigFounding Resident8/29/2012 – 9/1/2021 Mick was one of the biggest pig here at Piggins and Banks, partly because of his type of breed which fell on the large side (Kune Kune). We watched him grow from a little piglet in 2012 and he was one of our pet pigs that came to Piggins and Banks as a founding resident. He may have looked intimidating with his dark color and tusks, but he was a gentle giant and loved any attention and a good ear scratch. One of our most popular pigs, his sweet face was beloved by so many. He passed away in his sleep at the age of 9. We miss him dearly. Read about Mick’s passing: Mick the Pig Has Passed Away
