If you gently part the genital opening, on a sow, a "Y" shaped opening should appear. (pig 1)	2 MALE Slight pressure applied to get penis to extrude. (pig 2)

Great pictures. I have rabbits and guinea pigs and it seems like it is a lot easier to sex the guinea pigs than the rabbits. I have a pregnant female pig, who when she has her babies, I can sex them easily with the pictures.

Thanks so much for the info! I am "babysitting" a GP this weekend, and had no clue about their behavior or nutrition!
