black and light pink and orange.

The breed originated circa 1790 and as a tawny red colour spotted with black.

It was almost extinct by the middle of the 20th century in England but with the addition of new stock from Australia, New Zealand and the USA numbers have increased. With these introductions the colour of the Berkshire Pig has changed and they are now primarily black.
