New pigs
« on: May 24, 2015, 10:26:12 pm »
Well that's me now a new pig owner, a pair of sadleback weaners arrived today. I blame Rosemary and Dan for getting me involved with the pigs at the scottish smallholder and growers festival, the premier smallholders event in Scotland.

It's your own fault for falling in with the wrong crowd.  ;)

Enjoy, we loved having our saddlebacks earlier this year. They really liked a head rub so much that it would make them relax and lie down  :thumbsup:

Ok I will get my photographer Katie to take a few pics, my mother always told me about getting in with wrong crowd but ha ho I sometimes never listened.

Great to see Katie and you and will look forward to seeing pictures of pigs. I think Dan and Rosemary are responsible for many of us on here enjoying various livestock.
