Title: For Happy Hippy - One boy and his Pig.
Post by: mowhaugh on February 27, 2014, 05:52:42 pm: Not the best Photos, but I thought you might like to see them.

W on his way to feed Delilah:

This was really funny, he was giving her a cuddle and saying "Goodnight, I love you, see you in the morning but not before the sun comes up" like he does every night, and she stepped to the side. W very nearly fell over, but luckily Delilah hadn't moved too far and W landed on her instead:

Doreen, the larger sow in the background, is bigger than W's shetland pony!

I've kept 2 of her daughters back (supposed to be for bacon) but I'm getting increasingly attached to them :innocent:

Yes, I am so sorry I haven't replied, I keep trying to wait until I have time to reply properly and it never happens! Doreen is grand, fingers crossed pregnant, and would love you to come and visit!
