Hi langdon. I have also collected my first pigs today! 4 saddleback boars, 8 wks and they are delightful!! Think I'm going to have fun! Will post some pics when I get round to it ;D

Have tried to upload pics but files are too large! So have changed my profile pic! These are my new pigs...my boys...my bacon...my sausages...my lovely pork!! Yum and can't wait! ( Not their names, just me being me and thinking about food!) They are 1, 2, 3 & 4 although my neighbour ( who is having one of the boys wants to name hers!) I might name them yet...I dont know, only had them one day and they are settling in very well indeed. Even managed to give 2 of them a back scratch yesterday ( they were eating ).
Feel really lucky to have found these. The breeder only lives 15mins from me. How lucky am I!?:) ;D
