    LADIES thank you so much for the absolute best KuneKune video ever. I wish I could thank you each individually. I’ve watched this multiple times and learned something every single time. Plus you are all so gracious in your “roles”.

    This was one of the best informative videos I have seen. I do think Ballerinas would be horrified about the foot comparison but it was awesome!

    This is great. Thank you for the great information, as we are looking to purchase pasture pigs in the future and are researching for when that day comes.

    Thank you so much for this incredibly helpful education video, I am very happy with that. On the other hand, I am sad, then in Slovakia doesn´t exist Kunekune breed, even not society.

    Newbee here ...Do you keep the boar with the sows or keep them separate unless breeding?

    Is there a reason that the tusks are not clipped in the boar at birth??? Especially if, like this lady who was looking for a gilt and a companion pig, what is the purpose of the tusks since being in a situation where fighting for whatever reason was necessary back in time, it's not now and docile or not, they can cause serious damage if a scuffle broke out. You have an awesome video, extremely informative as well as interesting to watch and I hope the ringing in your ears from that little black spotted boar didn't last long. Thank you for taking the time to help others learn the standards of this breed.

    Hi Deby, they don't have their tusks at birth. The tusks are for fighting when they become adult boars. Castrated boars are very docile BUT, the tusks are still produced and sharp! Their tusks are actually teeth that grow longer and self sharpen. You can't actually start to trim them until they are over two years as they are still only just developing then. To remove the teeth would affect their grazing ability. Hope that helps.

    How much does a Kunekune cont in UK compared to NZ? There are a couple of big ones I pass each day on my way to work which are very popular, often I see people stopping to feed them or take pictures.

    While it's heartening that these standards were developed recognizing the diversity of the breed and with a goal of preserving health and the unique merits of the breed, ultimately this kind of breed standard judges by appearance, not performance. I hope the kunekune will not be another breed of animals to be destroyed and turned into unhealthy abominations by breeders selecting to conform to a list of arbitrary aesthetic standards rather than for health, efficiency, behavior, and other performance characteristics. This breed was clearly not developed for show, but to be a practical animal. Preserving and enhancing the merits of the breed should be the priority.

    Paelorian perhaps you did not watch the video. Clearly the society encourages diversity and each point of the standard had a practical application.

    Judging from their incessant grazing / rooting, these guys would be unhappy if maintained inside the house.

    The breeder is pretty clear,they don't care if you want it as a companion pet or for bacon. Pretty fucked up if you think about it.
