Hey yall. I need some insight.
All my girls are housed in the same pen.
In December 2025 we borrowed a boar for a 21 cycle. He mounted each one of my girls (4). However when each cycle came around only one (Amy) showed no signs of heat. That single gilt was also AI’d. Fast forward to this week that single gilt is separated and starting the journey of farrowing. YAY!!
Well, my issue I am having is one of the other girls (Brittany) for the past month has started to show the pregnancy bump and yesterday we noticed the nipples are larger and mammary glands are growing as well. Plus she looks identical to Amy when it comes to the belly shape and nipples!
I swear Brittany has went into heat. But I also could wrong. Since all four girls do look a like I could have mistaken her one of the others. The other two that are with Brittany look like non pregnant gilts. Nice shapes. Not over weight or under weight. They all are on a two times a day feeding and only get vegetables for snacks. All are up on deworm and vaccines.
I know if she went into heat and was pregnant it means she slipped her litter. Or There is a slim chance she’s going through a false pregnancy.
Or I totally messed up and mistaken her for one of the others.
What’s your thoughts??
If she is pregnant her due date is April 26. And no matter what we will be separating her from the other two just incase. We have called the vet but he can’t get out until April 20th to do an ultrasound. And by my records she should go into heat the 17th.
Guess we will wait and prepare just incase. I have never had this issue and feel very lost on how I missed it.
To add her heat cycles have always been less than compared to the others. Very little swelling, standing is only 24 hours and she’s extremely vocal no matter the day.
Again if you can give your thoughts I would appreciate it. Thanks

Not bread. That’s a pig. (Sorry, I couldn’t help myself)
She does look bred to me. She has a pregnancy line above her tits.
So she’d be due in three weeks? I say not bred, she’d be hanging LOW at this point.
There is a condom on the floor, sorry dude.
