My neighbor grew up on a farm and swears that pigs are cleaner animals than chickens!
I grew up on a farm.. and he's right when it comes to physical cleanliness - Pigs roll in the mud to keep off parasites/bugs and protect their skin from the sun.. and they are the only farm animal that deposits it's waste in a single area (and farthest from their food supply).. whereas the others just dump anywhere/everywhere.. walk and sleep and eat in it
Ironically - eating pork is not the cleanliest form of meat one can eat
