A couple of things, first, that hog appears to be a male. And one that was not fed well when young. (only going by the pic)

Also the cage appears wet, and hogs not not fans of wet. They like dry and humid.

And ambient temps are a bit more important with hogs then some other species. As they spend most/much of their life in the ground. Ambient temps up to the high eighties are fine for growth and feeding. If you want your hog to grow, then ambients in the high eighties are great. You just have to feed often, daily every other day type of thing.

Once they are adult size, you can use a lower ambient. Best wishes
