Here in the south east we usually miss out on rain until now! In the years I've had animals, pigs in particular I have never experienced the amount of rain fallen in the last month.
My pig pens are shocking, it's like mud soup, I am using more straw than ever to keep the arks dry and provide a doormat just outside, I feed in rubber skips, and put hay in the arks to munch on, but the whole situation is so unpleasant. I haven't been able to bring them all in as the barn has been used for sheep and lambs, and even that's flooded twice.
My saving grace is that we are supposedly heading towards summer rather than winter, and it will soon turn to concrete, but it's really getting me down, I didn't decide to keep pigs in these conditions, and feel they have such a naff deal at the moment, how does everyone else cope, as I know many you 'up there' have this bad weather to contend with a lot of the time.
