Mangalitsa Pigs

Get Mangalitsa pigs, bred and raised right here in Maine! These beauties are a heritage breed from Hungary. Their unique look and sweet temperament make them a great addition to any homestead. These guys are low maintenance and hardy, great for Maine winters. The flavor of Mangalista pork is unbeatable and it is often described as “the Kobe beef of pork”, this is thanks to the beautiful fat marbling. They take about 15 months to mature to market weight, longer than the larger breeds, but worth the wait! These pigs do well with foraging, but do root a lot, so be prepared for that! They generally respect an electric-only fence, and are content to stay where they are, provided with proper shelter, food, and water. They can also make a great backyard pet, but I definitely would not recommend them for indoor living. Many of our piglets go into cross-breeding programs, in an effort to improve meat quality while getting animals up to weight faster. If you are interested in an upcoming litter of piglets, please contact us. All live animals must be picked up at the homestead in Shapleigh, Maine. Pricing for piglets starts at $250 per animal.
