Its so muddy here ! Whats it like where your piggies are?

My boys have destroyed their plot so much that the entire area is now thick oozy mud ! we are up to our ankles & beyond in it and the pigs look like black pigs instead of GOS's. Their straw house is still lovely dry & warm but am thinking we might have to put paving slabs down to provide a dry/less muddy area for feeding!

Yip, probably is worth doing that to keep it a bit less muddy (If I remember right, yours aren't away til January ?) Pigs love mud when it's hot and sunny, but they're not so keen on it when it's cold and wet  Longer term (not that it matters with 'eaters') it can cause arthritus.

My fields are still okay (starting to get cut up around the feeding area), but then my wee Kunes don't plough the ground up  The shed's on stand-by for the winter, although Kunes love the snow (allegedly ) if we get the same amount as last year I won't be able to find them !

We have mud in some places its welly pulling off thick, in others we just have surface water.  Am going to have to move the pigs in the lower lying fields as the springs have started.  Yet where they dig the earth is powder dry just a few centimetres below.

Oh plenty of mud, lucky my pens are all on top of the old GWR railway line, so these a good stone ballast base  Opened pup the second pen for them today so they can have a bit more room to wonder, they've already started ploughing that one
