Congratulations Nails & Hillhead, enjoyable time ahead.
Ours are 4 days old now and scampering about like daft things, they are just so cute, definetly some heart breakers amongst them.
Hope all goes well for you both.

Hillhead, Blondie is a Mangalitza, she had 6 but we have lost 2 of them, but the other 4 are doing really well and running about like looneys now.
