Sorry for the common question, but I have never raised hogs from babies to breed. I have sold many babies and seen them grow for customers and I have bred adults that I acquired.

Mine were WC westerns and some tuff feeders. One I assist fed for almost 2 years. Get a pinky in her mouth and she would take it down. So,, with all the feeding issues with these WC ones I think they are all under normal size for BC babies that have fed well their entire lives.

My largest male and females are about 13". No idea why the one male grew faster than the female,, but the females are now catching up to him.

So, normal colubrids the rule is 3' 3 years. I have to toss teh 3' of course,, but is 3 years and good weight the normal start? and what lengths do you consider good for 3 year old nasicus?

Thanks
