Mini Pigs
​Pigs may be small, but their care can be a big challenge—especially when it comes to hooves and tusks. At The Farmyard Collective, we offer thoughtful, experienced care for your mini pigs to help keep them healthy, comfortable, and mobile.

Tusk Trimming
Using a gigli wire or specialized saw, we trim overgrown tusks with skill and caution—helping prevent injuries, jaw issues, and household damage. We always prioritize safety and efficiency for both pig and handler.
