Title: My SoS is famous!
Post by: Beewyched on September 29, 2012, 01:01:09 pm: Just had a quick peek on the SS&GF website to double-check my list, as we're getting ready for the show tomorrow - in the info about pig showing, there's a photo of my boy, getting ready for Lesmahagow Show 2011. He's covered in baby bath bubbles surrounded by buckets of warm water - everyone go awh :eyelashes:
:love: :pig: :love:

I was wondering how people get their pigs ready for shows. I put some baby oil on my OSB and she looks lovely. What would the "full works" pig beauty treatment involve then?

Yes Allison - do both the movement to & the movement from & print them off - you will need to hand them to the Pig Steward (Mr 4H) BEFORE you unload at the show in the morning.
See you there :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited:
