Calico

"Calico" describes a color pattern in hogs. This pattern typically features a mix of red or sandy and black areas. The coloring can range from just a patch on the hip or small area to the entire body. Some folks also call this the "tri-colored" pattern. So, just like a calico cat, a calico hog has a distinctive mix of colors that makes it stand out in the sty.
