As Shurenai stated, the boars needed proximity. I was off gallavanting, so they were not taming. I stuck around long enough to log every tree in the area and had to change my portal name from 'Shady Meadows Hog Farm' to 'Sunny Meadows Hog Farm'. But now I have two happy, 1 star piggies in a pen full of berries and shrooms, and I'm just waiting for the bacon wagon to start rolling. TY all for your feedback.
