WATCH: Ziggy the Not-So-Little Piggy is One of a Kind Pet

When Kristin Hartness and Jay Yontz got Ziggy, an advertised teacup pig, they were told he would stay small. Now, 5 years later their beloved pig weights about 250 pounds! Ziggy has always lived inside with them, but a pig that size proves to be difficult when trying to find homes to rent. They lived comfortably in the Virgin Island's but were forced to move out when the house was sold.

Ziggy has always lived inside with them, but a pig that size proves to be difficult when trying to find homes to rent. They lived comfortably in the Virgin Island's but were forced to move out when the house was sold.

This is where their adventure really began! They chartered a plane back to the states, hopped into an RV and have been living on the road since. People just adore Ziggy whenever they meet him. He is a world traveler, beloved pet and food connoisseur; making him the luckiest pig in all the land!
