you can get mini pigs (or teacup, micro piglets) online or if you know someone. although it is better to get them from a breeder you trust because lots of "backyard breeders" tend to sell regular piglets that grow into 300 pound pigs. i highly recommend Texas tiny pigs. but thats just me.
Yes mini pig are real. They are usally refered to are micro pigs or teacup pigs.
yes
Mini pigs and regular pigs have different growth patterns. Mini pigs tend to grow at a slower rate and reach their full size earlier than regular pigs. Regular pigs grow faster and larger, taking longer to reach their full size. This difference in growth can impact their care and feeding requirements.

The mini or micro pigs come from a mixed breed of pot bellied pigs and kune kunes. People say they stay under 50 pounds and sometimes they do if your lucky, but sometimes they can reach up to 100 pounds depending on the genetics of the pig.
Miniature pigs can be purchased online from various stores. Some of these stores are Royal Dandie, Vet Street, Paw Nation, Oz Mini Pigs and Texas Tiny Pigs.
Females can get as big as male Guinea pigs which can be up to 2-5 pounds
