Title: Pig weather vane
Post by: bridgetclyde on October 19, 2013, 10:47:02 am

Our two Berkshires went off a month ago.  Raising them was a thoroughly excellent experience with these friendly little pigs.  Their crackling is amazing.  So in anticipation of having another couple next summer I would like to buy a weather vane with a pig on it rather than the standard cockerel. I've seen one but its plastic and I would prefer a metal one.  Anyone know of a supplier?  Thanks

OR - you could have a pig in the house. We make door toppers and wooden puzzels of pigs. The puzzels are very popular and the black silhoute door toppers look great against a plain wall.
We have some in stock or can make to order.
TAS members have also ordered door toppers and wall-mounted outdoor signs that include their fav animals.
 Hope you enjoy a look at our web site.
