I Finally found 2 star boar
And to top it off, this happened on my starting continent!
No need to setup a different location for breeding boars. Just had to swim over few streams and the boar happily swam after me, bless his murderous soul
Just wanted to put this out there

About breeding boars
I'm hopeful but with questions as I'm trying to take this seriously.
My first 2 star boar, Jeltsin, is just hugging corner of its pen, even after bringing a mob to scare it. Got great big red exclamation mark and some noise but no attacking the fence, no running around or anything. It just runs at some intervals to grab a carrot and back to the corner it is. Luckily breeding did finally happen after placing the feed at Jeltsins feet and thus attracting mates to it. It has begun!
How often can a boar have a piggy? How long does a piggy take to grow? Does it take longer for starred ones to grow or should they be superior and actually grow faster?
Do starred ones eat more often than regular ones? Do they need more space, how many in a pen that's the size of max zoom out view?
Thanks!

You need a second boar to have piggies, doesn't have to have any stars. There's a 50% chance it will be a two star. Then you can kill off the no-stars.
The thing where they stand in the corner is a known bug. I'd kill that one off once you get a few replacements.
Added: wait ok you did get them started. That's a lot of questions to keep up with. Food is only for breeding, so it doesn't matter that much. They seem to all grow at the same rate. Piggies only seem to take a few minutes if you have enough space. Don't know the exact numbers.
When you get to the mountains you will want to completely enclose your pig farm, especially if you go in the caves.

Here's a few tips for successful breeding and subsequent offspring production. Once you tame another boar for breeding, it's a good idea (but by no means essential) to have a small pen inside your larger pen. Push the breeding couple into the smaller pen and throw down a stack of 2-4 foodstuffs. They should come together over the food, and while in close proximity to one another, you will see a burst of hearts explode from the boar which was successfully inseminated. Your character has to be in the general vicinity of the boars for them to both eat, mate and produce offspring. Feeding them, then running away and zoning out of their vicinity will not produce any results. It is a good idea to have your boar pen in either close proximity to where you sleep, or an area you are active in for extended periods, like your gardening plots. I keep gardens inside my large boar pen, which is also right beside my sleeping quarters. So we are in close proximity to one another when I am planting and when I am sleeping. I sometimes also turn auto-loot off while harvesting certain portions of my crops, and leave them laying on the ground for my boars to eat.
If you use a smaller pen inside a larger pen for breeding, make sure to empty it out regularly, as boar will not produce offspring when the area they occupy is cramped. I also have a star shaped boar pen, and throw food down in the points of the star, as it forces them into close proximity to one another as they contend for the food, which facilitates successful breeding. Only happy boars will breed. If I feed them before I sleep, I place 2 food at least for every boar in the pen, this ensures they will have a meal before I sleep, and they will have enough food to eat in the morning. Boar are always hungry again after a sleep cycle.
