No, male hogs do not have horns. They do grow tusks, that grow larger with each year of age. They can get quite large, interfering with eating so they sometimes have to be removed surgically. Other times they are just fierce looking. They can be filed off, much like other animals, and they can be almost one inch in circumference. THey can do damage to other animals should they engage in a fight.
A young male hog is called a Shoat, and a female is called a Gilt. As a group they are known as piglets.
