Remember back in April when the two piglets were born on the smallholding and their mother had no milk and we brought them inside, and put them in a cage on top of the table in the Conservator,y and we bottle fed them with lamb lace milk replacer, in plastic bottles?
Well they survived and now they are fully weaned and living in a the puppy pen that the Golden Retriever puppies lived in when they were born:
It's always a joy when undernourished farm animals survive.
If you want any piglets let me know. Anyone else keep pigs or thinking of getting some?
My humans would love piggy wigs but our neighbours wouldn't be happy, and I, the Tigger, demand all the attention around here anyway.
ReplyDeletePot Belly Pigs make good pets Tigger.
ReplyDeleteAll I have to say is this:
ReplyDeleteThey sailed away, for a year and a day,
To the land where the Bong-Tree grows
And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood
With a ring at the end of his nose,
His nose,
His nose,
With a ring at the end of his nose.
Wasn't Edward Lear a poetic genius YP? " To market to market to buy a fat pig.." Also comes to mind.
DeleteBoris Johnson also comes to mind. Doesn't he look piggish?
DeleteDidn't he tell some Porkers?
DeleteHe certainly did! On his big red Brexit battle bus he promised £350 million a week for the NHS from money not being sent to The European Union! It was a big fat porky and he most likely knew it at the time.
DeleteHis sort can pay visas and spend luxurious holidays in th Caribbean and host parties paid by the taxpayers at Number 10.
DeleteYes. I will take a pig. Perhaps you could pop it in a package and post it, please?
ReplyDeleteI could put it on a ship to Boston Debby.
DeleteThey both look well and healthy, they'll be hams and bacon in no time :)
ReplyDeleteThey are boars River. So they could also be used for breeding.
DeleteVery cute little piggies. I'm glad to hear they are thriving.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda. They are cute characters.
