It should be noted that, officially, the '''FFFF''' tile is not a pig-herd tile (see '''{{RiverLink|logo=noborder|version=II|edition=C1}}''' for more details). This has been confirmed by Jay Tummelson of [[Rio_Grande_Games|'''Rio Grande Games''']], the producer of this expansion. <ref>

'''Question:''' Do you have an official ruling? I understand from Hans im Glück that these are your tiles rather than theirs, so I guess you are the final arbiter! '''Answer:''' Yes, I am—and this is just a field —no special points for the pigs and cows in it—sorry.

The '''FFFF''' tile with a pig herd can be counted as a pig-herd tile (i.e. providing a bonus point per city) for the purposes of scoring farms. It could be counted as such even when not playing with the pig piece ('''{{TradersBuildersLink|edition=C1|logo=noborder}}''').

There are no official rules for using two pig-herd tiles, as there are no rules for using two copies of '''{{RiverLink|logo=noborder|version=II|edition=C1}}''', and the similar GQ11 tile is not officially a pig-herd tile. However, if one farm has multiple pig-herd tiles, it seems that they should not stack; in other words, the bonus should only be awarded once, in keeping with other landscape bonuses such as '''{{InnsCathedralsLink|edition=C1|logo=noborder}}'''.

'''Question:''' Does the pig-herd tile still score an extra point when there is a barn on the farm (barn = 4 points, barn+pig-herd = 5 points per city)? '''Answer:''' The pig-herd tile only counts in connection with farmers, not the barn.

It may be possible to use the tile as if it were a pig-herd tile, but this would be a house rule, rather than an official rule.
