Pigs are commonly found in Meadows, Forests, and Plains biomes, often in small groups. Village farms are another good place to check.
What Do Pigs Eat?
To breed pigs, use carrots, potatoes, or beetroots. Feeding two pigs with these will put them in "love mode," resulting in a piglet after a short time.

While not tamable like cats or wolves, pigs can be ridden. Here's how:
- Craft a fishing rod: Three sticks and two string.
- Make a carrot on a stick: Combine a fishing rod and a carrot.
- Find a saddle: These are found in chests in dungeons, temples, strongholds, or from villager trades.
- Build a pen: Keep your pigs contained.
- Gather at least two pigs.
- Lead them to the pen: Use a carrot.
- Feed them carrots, potatoes, or beetroots to breed them.
- Wait 10 minutes for the piglet to mature (feeding speeds this up).
