I've got my registered Large Blacks  ;D ;D ;D
2 of them ! it was supposed to just be the one, but hubby's obviously just as piggin' bad as me  ;)  ;D :pig: ;D :pig: ;D
They're all tucked up in the shed now, I'll leave them to settle in tonight before bombarding them with flash photography ! Hopefully have pics tomorrow or the next day.
I'm grinning like a cheshire cat  ;D Oh I'll have to go and think of names now  :wave:

Congratulations!

Just like there are baby name books for people, there should be a name books for piggies!

Grinning from ear to ear knightsquest, excited is an understatement ;D;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Definately joining the BPA - I've got the forms filled out already, just waiting til January so I don't have to pay 2 subscriptions within such a short space of time(some of that Aberdonian thrift must've rubbed off on me  ;))
I'm getting all posh with the names and thinking Lady and Duchess, can't imagine a huge large black with a cutesie name somehow  ;) But til I've spent a bit of time with them I'll hang off on naming them.
 ;D :pig: ;D :pig: ;D :pig: ;D

Oh I am so jealous. I just do not have the room to keep pigs all year round so have to just limit myself to 6 months or so with my weaners.
Look forward to seeing the pictures.

Now I'm confused ! (Not that it takes much mind you !)
Are the pigs parents champions ? (Cos I'm not  ;))
What job ? Did I miss something lol !
Can't see me showing them, mmmmmm, maybe I can  ;) Providing I can cheat with some syrup on the stick  :o ;D
I'll send my membership form off tomorrow Lillian  ;)

I tried getting the kids to come up with 'floral' type names - got nasturtium and geranium  :D My kids eh ?  ;D

Lady and Duchess... sounds good, if you get a boar he'll just have to be called Earl!  :D

I'm NOT, repeat not getting a boar  ;) Honest ! Though think he'd have to be Duke, instead of Earl  ;D
Yes PP, they're about 10 weeks old, so cute and very good looking indeed  ;D ;D ;D Didn't want to go for an older one, it would have terrified all my other 'wee' pigs  ;)
