Our neighbour has been raising a pig for the past two months. However they are moving to another country to live in a weeks time and they asked me if i wanted to keep the pig.
My two sisters have always admired how fat it had grown in a short while and wished they could eat it's pork and as they never got along with the neighbours, the decision is on me. What decision should i make or what would you do if you were in my place? I do see my sisters point of view but will it be bad of me to go their way? |

Of course do what you think is best.
Would you want a pig running around your house messing it up. If you sisters just want to eat it, buy some bacon from Krogers and there done. There is no reason to accept is because, if you give it away and the neighbor wants to check on its pig, what will you say. Just say no thank you and give her a cake. Thats a proper way to say good bye, not get a pig. |

You can sell a farm ripe pig for a couple hundred bucks depending where you live. Take the pig, contact your local butcher or organizer of Future Farmers Of America (FFA) to inquire if they know anyone who buys live pork, or place a free ad in the pennysaver or local newspaper if the cost isn't extravagant. Filipinos and other Asians also love to buy live animals for their festivals. Selling an animal for meat isn't immoral or distasteful in any way. It's only in this modern age where we don't grow up regularly seeing out own parents butcher animals for supper, but seriously, you don't want to do that yourself, because if you don't do it right, get the intestines and stomach out intact without contaminating the meat, you'll ruin everything.

They asked you if you would like to keep the pig not eat the pig. Tell them what your intentions are before you take the pig because they may think of the pig as a pet and not a meal. They may want the pig to go to a happy family not a hungry one. I'm sure if they didn't care what happened to the pig they could sell it and make money on it, so i think they want him/her to live a long happy life.
