Hello from me in South Lanarkshire

I made a return to farming (lol, that makes it sound impressive

) a few years ago after my family gave it up when I was a teenager. So far it's been fairly slow (and punctuated by babies !) but we're getting there

Pigs are wonderfully addictive and although we only had a pet goat when I was young - he was very amusing.
Good luck and let us know how you get on.

Hello from Derbyshire. We keep a number of goats (and still growing!) hopefully starting out with a couple of piglets soon, to join our menagerie of other animals.

Hello from NW Leicestershire. I got 2 saddleback gilts at the weekend.. warning you may find pigs addictive! I keep finding excuses to work from home so I can watch them from the office window!
