The detail
Gloucestershire Old Spots come from England and are white with black spots and lop ears. They are docile, hardy pasture pigs, once known as orchard pigs for grazing on fallen fruit.
What to weigh
Their pale skin can burn in strong sun. They grow slower and put on more fat than commercial breeds.
