RSPCA were called to a terraced house where piggies were being kept in the back garden.
The woman had bought a 'micro pig' and of course it grew. For some reason she then decided to help a farmer our by letting him put a boar in with her sow. Result - 9 'micro pigs'
All of this in a tiny terraced back garden. You can imagine the mud and smell situation
Not surprisingly the neighbours wern't too happy.

What a coincidence :-J - a colleague of mine at work this morning wanted to talk to me about our pigs. They live in a terrace in a village and have a fair size garden - want to get some of those 'little' pigs to keep as pets. I think he meant kune kunes, although he wasn't sure - I asked him if he had around 1/4 acre at least which he could split and rotate the pigs on to rest the ground. He went a bit quiet and then said maybe it wasn't the best idea!!
I have said he can come see our setup - our field is only in the next village. I wonder if he will!! :innocent:
