They are smaller than regular hogs, which usually weigh 800 lbs. Teacup pigs CAN weigh up to 120 lbs, and about the size of a medium dog! They are smaller than a regular pig when fully grown, but they do NOT stay "teacup" small.

What is a potbellied pigs diet?
Potbellied pigs will generally eat anything. The danger in this is that they can become obese and unhealthy. A potbellied pigs diet should mainly consist of foods high in fiber. There are feeds made especially for potbellied pigs that will contain the amount of fiber needed. Some brands are Heartland and and Peak Performance. The amount of feed depends on the weight of the potbellied pig. The general rule is about 1/2 cup of maintenance food per 25 pounds of the pigs weight. This total amount should then be divided into two feedings a day. Potbellied pigs can also be fed vegetables to expand diet options for the pig. Fruit can also be fed to the pig but in small amounts because of the higher amount of natural sugars. Another very important part of a pigs diet is water. Water should always be available for the potbellied pig to drink.
What really is the difference between a pot belly pig a tea cup pig a mini pig im thinking about getting one but before you do you want to be very very prepared you need to make sure it stays small?
A pot bellied pig grows to the size of a great dane. A tea cup mini pig grows to the size of a small labrador. You cannot make any pig "stay small". And just a guess by the question, you cannot keep them in a back yard or your house, they will wreck your house and dig up you garden, as well as it being way to small for a pig. They are fairly hard to look after and require training as a bite from a pig could remove a finger, or worse. I know it sounds fairly grim, but don't get me wrong, I love pigs! I love pigs too and I've done a lot of research on both the pot bellied pig and the teacup pig. The teacup pig is raised to be a house pet. They enjoy the company of people and other animals. They are also easily trained and friendly when treated the right way as a piglet. Teacup pigs do grow to be about the size of a small labrador. You can tell how big the pig will be by looking at the size of its mother and father. The female are generally smaller then the males. A fully grown teacup pig varies between 30-60 lbs. A pot bellied big is the type of pig you would see at a farm. No matter what pig you get, be sure to consult with your vet to ensure your pig lives a happy and healthy life.
