Pigs come in variety of colors. The pigment on a pig is in the top layer of skin. So when the hair is removed from a pig by scalding and scraping or by burning the hair off, they all turn white regardless of the color they initially started with. ----in my province (Leyte).. we have this what we call the native pigs and the high breed pigs... mostly the high breed pigs has this white skin color (pinkish).. and the native pigs has black, spotted black and white (or spotted brown and black), and brown or light brown in color.
