Default pet pigs in yard/will not insure

Are there any insurance companies in Florida that will insure me without a hassle because I own Pot-Bellied pigs and some chickens?
I am agriculturally zoned on 2 1/4 acres.
I was insured by Universal, I had let it lapse, then had to have it re-insured and re-inspected. Olympus took me on, only to drop me three weeks later.

I live in Colorado and do have a pet potbelly in my yard as well (full size). I have no issues being insured through American Family Insurance. Hope this helps

I have State Farm and I keep a pig (at least parts of it) in my freezer. No problem. Now that I think about it, they didn't even ask.

Not a potbelly, but this "guard-pig" wouldn't let me in the yard for my afternoon inspection.

Why are you even telling your agent you have pigs?

Unless they have a specific question on their application, stop offering information.
