Oh thank you so much, the photos are lovely - i can't believe just how much I miss piggys, I had quite forgotten how adorable they are :wub:

You have some amazing looking piggys there and some fantastic colours, do you show? I seem to remember you rescue as well?

I bet they love that community area, do they live indoors all the time?

Seffie x
 
hi seffie
I will be showing this year at the moment they can only be entered in the clipped section as i havnt let them grow there coats to the longhaired standard (I cant get to grips with the idea of using bobbles and stuff haha)
bath time is enough of a trauma :lol:

all the boars live in hutches apart from mr b who i had neutered three months ago as I could not part with him but didnt want to use him as a working boar anymore he loves his new life ruleing the sows as you can imagine ;)

Your right i find them much more at ease living communaly I will not give or sell anyone just one pig unless they have another or if they want to put it with a rabbit

They all live in one big shed with the hutches along one wall in which the materninty suites are at ground level so the pregnant sows are not to much removed from the rest to minimise stress but they can get a bit of piece when the time comes as the others are nosey little devils :lol:
In the summer they all come out in to runs and weed feed and mow my grass if its dry to keep there coats from getting muddy
if it does rain i get wet and pick it for them coz I;m stupid haha

regards scot :good:
 
I love love love me some piggies! I am so jealous. Beautiful pigs and they look so happy in their nice spacious shelter.
 
another batch of mini pigs :)

yes there on my bed :lol:
