We started with Pinky and Perky (obviously!)  ;)

Then came:
Spot, Belle, Lulu, Lolly, Honey, Blossom, Pip, Curly and Humphrey (he has a little hump!) and our big manly boar Muffin!

We don't name the rest as they're all destined for meat.....although we've found they don't taste any different whether you name them or not  ;)

2010 began with 4 sows - 2011 starts with 8 sows, a boar and 41 piglets (all currently running free thanks to the weather bringing down their electric fencing - Happy Days!!!

I told the vet his name when she came to visit Kim after farrowing. Given he's sired 22 babies first try I'd say bonking boris was apt and she thought it was funny  ;D :pig: ;D :pig:

Ziggy the Piggy? Now why didn't we think of that!  ;D
We've got loads of kids coming to see our pigs and the only thing they could think of was Porky...  ::)
3 different families all chose the same weaner as 'their' pig as he was easily identifiable because of his black ear, though I'm pretty sure none of them actually got a bit of him in the end :D

Three Saddlebacks, all girls named Cheryl, Simona and Louise after the X Factor judges!  Simona's band of white is quite high up so it looks like she has Simon Cowell trousers on!
