#### Should You Be Able to Sell/Donate Your Own Piggies?

So the new no selling/donating hogtied piggies rule is in place. While I think this is a good idea, I have one problem with it. That's that you can't sell/donate your own hogtied piggies that you raised from an egg. Of course you can sell them at the Auction, but since everyone is selling their piggies there now the price for one is about half what it should be. And, of course, you can't donate them at all... I think we should be allowed to donate/sell piggies as long as they were ones we hatched and raised ourselves. For one thing, I have a feeling there's going to end up being way too many piggies in game. Once more people begin using animal husbandry, everyone will have tons of piggies in their house. Rather than making a very small profit by trying to auction (which will be hard because everyone else will be auctioning them, at decreasing prices), people will just start letting them go. And no one will be hogtying wild piggies, so there will be way too many piggies. I think we should be allowed to donate/sell piggies we raised ourselves, or have a limited number of piggies we can tie per real day, have a minimum and maximum number of piggies allowed for every area, and be allowed to sell/donate them. If you agree (or disagree) please post below and explain your point of view.

- When there are too many piggies they will die through attrition. They can and do starve if not fed.
  I disagree with further changes mainly because I would rather have the developers working on other aspects of the game.

- I'm wondering if a good compromise to this would be to up what piglets sell and donate for. You could never get a piglet wild, which means you either raised it yourself or bought it or the egg from another player - both legitimate. And only 10 currents of grain/cherries/beans/whatever you feed your piglet separates it from a pig so it's not like asking a bean to donate for the same as say, Awesome Stew.
