Sleeping Pigs

Bit of an odd request this, but I read in a newspaper yesterday that pigs only sleep on their right sides!!!!:wide-eyed They will suckle piglets and laze around on both sides but apparently only sleep on the right side!! :dizzy: Can anyone confirm this? Do you know/are you a pig farmer? I'm intrigued and need to know! :bouncy: Maybe I should just buy a pig (scientific purposes you understand!) and find out!:rotfl: :D :pig:

Thanks :thumbsup:

Ahhh .. do Guinea pigs fall into this category as you may have a valid excuse to add to the furry head count then ! :D
