hogs will turn feral with feral characteristics in very few generations...
a lot of how they look depends on the country they are in, if they are in strong country, they keep the "domestic" look a lot longer. you get them into some sorry ole caliche and cedar hills, those suckers get sorry and long headed and long haired quick.

i believe nutrition and feed availibilty has alot to do with how long hogs keep a domestic look or start turning feral...  there is some country about 15 miles down the road from me that is that old stout granite type country, the feral hogs there look like they are half or three quarter good farm blood... short heads, big hams.... and those hogs have been feral in thru there since Jesus was a baby, there isn't any on purpose farm blood introduction into them either.
