Belting or Banding - We are beginning to see "belted/banded" KuneKune pigs. While they are not in the color chart, as it is not a typical KuneKune characteristic, they can be registered with DNA proof of parentage. At times the belts and bands may not be just white as they are appearing in other colors. You will be given an opportunity on the piglet registration to have it noted in the herd book that a piglet is 'belted or banded". After the color will be "(B)" notating the piglet has a belt or partial belt, banding or high percentage white. High
White Percentage is 85% or more white Example the pig below would be registered as Ginger/Black (B) Please remember that it is the breeder's responsibility to notate the bands/belts when registering a pig.
