I've got my registered Large Blacks ;D ;D ;D
2 of them ! it was supposed to just be the one, but hubby's obviously just as piggin' bad as me ;) ;D :pig: ;D :pig: ;D
They're all tucked up in the shed now, I'll leave them to settle in tonight before bombarding them with flash photography ! Hopefully have pics tomorrow or the next day.
I'm grinning like a cheshire cat ;D Oh I'll have to go and think of names now :wave:
-
Congratulations!
Just like there are baby name books for people, there should be a name books for piggies!
-
Oh lucky you ;D ;D :pig: :pig: Let us know what you call them. Hope I see them one day.
Black Beauty and Cinderella ?

Congratulations. You must be so excited :)

Grinning from ear to ear knightsquest, excited is an understatement ;D;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Definately joining the BPA - I've got the forms filled out already, just waiting til January so I don't have to pay 2 subscriptions within such a short space of time(some of that Aberdonian thrift must've rubbed off on me ;))
I'm getting all posh with the names and thinking Lady and Duchess, can't imagine a huge large black with a cutesie name somehow ;) But til I've spent a bit of time with them I'll hang off on naming them.
;D :pig: ;D :pig: ;D :pig: ;D

all clubs allow a certain leway marcus would not do that to a champion of the bpa???????????????????????
told you you had the job you will be wanting pig boards sticks and a white coat

Congratulations! I'm totally besotted with my Blacks ... mine are Daisy and Tulip! ;D :pig:

Oh I am so jealous. I just do not have the room to keep pigs all year round so have to just limit myself to 6 months or so with my weaners.
Look forward to seeing the pictures.

Now I'm confused ! (Not that it takes much mind you !)
Are the pigs parents champions ? (Cos I'm not ;))
What job ? Did I miss something lol !
Can't see me showing them, mmmmmm, maybe I can ;) Providing I can cheat with some syrup on the stick :o ;D
I'll send my membership form off tomorrow Lillian ;)

well done xxx are they weaners? :wave:

Lady and Duchess... sounds good, if you get a boar he'll just have to be called Earl! :D
-
I'm NOT, repeat not getting a boar ;) Honest ! Though think he'd have to be Duke, instead of Earl ;D
Yes PP, they're about 10 weeks old, so cute and very good looking indeed ;D ;D ;D Didn't want to go for an older one, it would have terrified all my other 'wee' pigs ;)
-
duke of earl
-
And when he gets old he'd be Earl Grey ;D
-
Congratulations, another addict wonderful .... :D :D :D :D :D (I have cut and pasted this on to my OH dressing gown, the bathroom door and a few other places to drop a couple of hints to my OH.

I'm going to keep them in the shed with the Berkshire until the snow's all gone, then they'll get out into the field and I'll get better photos ;)

Might I need a wide angle lens for that one ? lol! ;) ;D
I've decided on 'Lady' and 'Duchess' for names cos they're very gentle and ladylike. Definately not the best photo, she's MUCH better looking in the flesh ;)
Ooh, yummy, chocolate pigs! ;D
