How will the experience of the colt contribute to his maturity as a stallion someday?
Ya it depends on the stallion tho.
-pinky
Yes! If a colt is raised well enough and taught manners young he should be well behaved. It depends on the stallion though. As he gets older you must be sure to work with him regurlarly so he doesnt get to bored and end up getting into trouble. A trained stallion with a job (other than covering) is a happy stallion.

How have the pigs elaborated old Majors teachings into a complete system of thought?
The pigs in George Orwell's "Animal Farm" elaborated Old Major's teachings into a complete system of thought by creating their own ideology called Animalism. They took Old Major's original ideas of equality among animals and revolution against humans, and expanded on them to create a set of commandments, symbols, and principles to govern the farm. The pigs, notably Napoleon and Snowball, used rhetoric and manipulation to establish a hierarchy that ultimately deviated from Old Major's vision of a fair and equal society.
Will a pig always stand when she is in heat?
Yes. A way that AI techs (Artificial Insemination technicians) test to see if a sow or gilt is ready to be bred is to sit on their backs to see if they will stand still. If the sow or gilt stands still when pressure is put on her hips (imitating the weight of the boar's front when he mounts to breed her), then she's ready to be bred. Her vulva will also be swollen and red, which is an indicator that she's in heat.
Sows will have a period where they stand to get bred, but they also have a period during their heat cycle (which is before and after standing heat) where they will not. It can be quite noisy and a bit violent during this period. The sow or gilt will go after the boar and vice versa, and sometimes fights and squabbles can break out--and even if they are tame pet, you do NOT want to be in the way of such "courting" behaviour. But as time goes on, the sow/gilt will come to accept the boar and let him mount and breed her.
You don't unless you are planning on showing it. They enjoy a good hosing and a mud puddle to coat themselves so that they are protected from bugs and the sun. But if you feel like giving your piggie a bath, a nice human shampoo, a hose and a scrub brush work well.
