« on: November 04, 2011, 05:26:27 pm »
Two female Kune Kune piglets for sale
Hand reared, very friendly, used to cats and strangers
Both ginger, one alot bigger than the other at the moment. 
just weaned

We have tried unsuccessfully to reintergrate them with our herd,
therefore they need a loving "forever" home where they will be treated as part of the family, not sausaged please!


CPH number needed to keep pigs and very secure housing for these two.
Collection only from central Derbyshire
SIblings and mother can be seen

please contact me for more details

Pictures of Lucky & Mogwai - taken outside before it went horribly wrong & they had to be rescued again!
For sizing...

Lucky against a size 10 welly!
         

Against her year-old sister - same litter as Roxy's two


From right to left, smallest to bigger: Lucky, Mogwai, Auntie Maud, Ethel (the gingery brown bum - born July 11) and black & white spotty sibling, as above


sorry bad photo - to try and show the difference in size between the 2

Oooh, what little cuties!!!  Were mine ever that small!!!

I  am sure it will be hard to see them go, Little Blue, especially as you have hand reared them.

Well done on managing to rear these two, it cannot have been easy.  Having just hand reared George a ginger kitten, I know all about the night feeds, and worrying times!!

.... No!!
Well, as samll as Mog perhaps,
The July litter from Maud were bigger than Lucky is now when they were born! Mind you, she only had the three.

Piglets will soon have a lovely new home

And I'll keep my tears for  my solitude -  they will be much missed ... but very spoilt (still!) I'm sure!

Now thats the worrying bit .....living in a kitchen at present, we do not actually have a kitchen.  And we have one large tom cat, and ginger George  who we are bottle feeding in there already.  But we have had goat kids in large cat carriers in the caravan in the past!!

I have got ready a very large dog kennel - looking at the size of the piglets, they will get lost in it!!!!

... depending if and when she tells the husband Why they've actually moved the dog kennel, eh Roxy?!  :D

  These two piggies will be totally spoilt, just like they're used to

Since their ordeal outside, they have been sleeping alot .... they should recover and be back in full voice by the weekend!  ;)

Oh don't worry, Little Blue ....he knows exactly who will be living in the enormous, heavy, dog kennel .......

One thing he did say - what breed are they/  Apparantly I had told him that the last two would not grow into enormous pigs  - he says they are massive!! 
Not my fault if he thought they would only grow to the size of a cat, is it?   I think these two will be small enough for him.

If he thinks the kunes are big ... take him to visit somewhere that has large whites, and tell him your thinking of having a few of those!!
we'll see how your two compare to my muddy threesome :D

I can guarantee yours and mine will be alike in one way - covered in mud.  Its rained again all night here, and the mud is terrible.
