    I dont think sheep and pigs have that many genes in common, the sperm and eggs wouldn't match up hence could not be fertilized?

    I am not sure how closely related their genes are but there were some advancements using the unique electromagnetic signatures of one living organism on the fertilized embryo off another totally unrelated living organism. The embryo is born with features of the organism that had no contact other than its electromagnetic signature being bombarded at it during its embryotic stage.
