that certainly COULD be a west texas animal-nothing about it seems to fall outside the parameters of animals I've seen that come from the area. Not saying it's from there-just that it could be. I'm not very familiar with more western localities (NM, AZ), so can't comment about that. Does not look very "south TX" to me.

Thanks for the input guys... When I start working with the Mexicans, I want to keep the line I will be working with pure... I guess this guy will be a pet...

Just keep him to mix with a kennerlyi morph.
As I am aware, there is one recessive and one codom with mex hogs.
I think babies from both will be released in 2010 or 2011.
