No not the name of a English Prog Rock band. I thought would give you good people a progress report on Barley the Gloucester Old Spots piglets:

We weaned them and put them in a different part of their animal housing a few weeks ago.
Barley did not bother one bit. I think seven Bonhams biting her teats was more than enough and now she stands up on her two legs on top of the gate grunting for food.
She's quite a character and so are her piglets.
We love it when the piglets run across a paddock with their ears flapping up and down. Piglets are so comical and so endearing.
ReplyDeleteThey look fun. Like most young animals.
ReplyDeleteThey are very endearing Tigger and characters like people. They wean so easily. They also expect to be fed at the same time every day.
ReplyDeleteThey are great fun and they are true animal gardeners Tasker. They will root and eat and fertiilize any any wild or cultivated.
ReplyDeleteHow fast they have grown already. Very cute still though.
ReplyDeleteThey're beauties aren't they JayCee? They get lots of Bonham ration and vegetables and they even eat their straw bed.
DeleteNice little diggers and fertilisers !!
ReplyDeleteThey would clear your Mares Tail GZ. They should be used to clear overgrown allotments and scrub.
DeleteThanks for the update. The Northsider family did a great job of raising the piggies to this point. Which was the one that went wee-wee-wee all the way home?
ReplyDeleteThe ones in the Conservatory liked to wee in their beds. Barley go outside for their ablution YP.
ReplyDeleteWell, these little piggies could charm the big bad wolf.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't they just Debby? I love Spring time and all the new life.
DeleteThey are looking very well :)
ReplyDeleteThey are in fine condition River and are growing so quickly.
ReplyDeleteThey have grown a lot Dave. Well fed. I can see why Mama Pig was glad to be released from the duty
ReplyDeleteThey are probably the easiest pigs we have had to grow so well. It must be their breeding. Barley seems content and free from her piglets.
