New Pigs!


We picked up the pigs today. The kids named them Thomas (the black one, which is a girl) and Speck (the pink one). Both are Mulefoot crosses that were purchased from our friends at The Piggery. So far, they seem very happy, if terrified of us. I'm not daunted, though. I used to tame feral cats. Pigs should be no problem.




pigs rooting in their temporary home. We have them in a smallish (about 10x10) area so we can socialize them fot the first couple of weeks. Once they seem to like us, we'll set them loose in the 2000 square foot "pasture."

Mmmmmmm - pork :-)

We saw a whole truck being carried to the slauterhouse near us - we were also down wind of them (if you know what I mean).
