Daffodil/narcissus bulbs are definately poisonous to humans. Pigs are often used in medical models as the best reflecting what happens to humans, so vice versa would work too.

I know a field where pigs have been kept for years where there are wild daffy bulbs and it seems the pigs avoided them or didnt eat enough per porker to affect them, otherwise they wouldnt be any coming through now. I wouldnt risk it.
