The Large Black pig is often referred to as the “dog” among pig breeds. This is because of their docile, friendly nature. Large, floppy ears which cover their gentle eyes denote their original name of “Lop Eared Black”

The Large Black pig is perfect for the homesteader raising pigs for their own pork. They work well for those of us who practice pasture management with livestock rotation. The feed bill is small and can be nothing if you have the available pasture and forest.
-
Their floppy, black ears which cover their eyes, are of a practical design. Since they’re natural foragers, the ears protect the eyes from damage while they root around in the woods. Their eyesight is of course hindered by this, but they work around it.
