Julia was born June 1994 (In the picture to the left, this is Julia and her Mom when she was 12 hours old. The picture to the right she is only 6 days old... what a HAM!). She was soooooo tiny. Now she is soooooo BIG. She is not as big as a normal pig... Pot Belly Pigs are known for their smaller size. Her Favorite food is APPLES! She loves em! When you SAY the word APPLE she comes running, her tail starts wagging (just like a puppy) and she starts turning circles!

Loraine loves Julia sooooooo much that she drew Julia to use in my Storybooks so I could enjoy her too! The only thing I don't like is when she comes into the kitchen... because she is a real "PIG" when it comes to food! In my IS IT CHRISTMAS YET story you can hear Loraine yelling "Get Julia out of the Kitchen!"

How did we come up with Julia's name? Jan, an exchange student from Berlin, Germany named her after his SISTER. Julia, (the sister) was not very happy about this... but when she saw Julia's (the pig) baby photos she was VERY HAPPY to have such a cute pig named after her.

A Pot Belly Pig can live in your home. REALLY they can! They can be liter trained just like a cat... except their liter box has to be ALOT bigger! Julia lived in our home until this past summer when we moved her out to a nice large fenced in area... she seems to LOVE it!

• Pig's hair is very bristly. Julia sheds her hair, starting in the late Spring.
  
• Her tail is straight, not curly like the normal pigs you see.
  
• When you pet Julia's belly, she falls over demanding "More - More!"
  
• Julia LOVES to talk. We call it the Julia "chatter." Sorta like "Pig" latin... smile.
