This mornings task
« on: May 24, 2012, 11:57:54 am »
My weaners have only been in their permanent pen outside since Tuesday and the weather has taken a turn for the good.
 
I thought they were looking a bit pinker around the ears than they should be this morning so the task was to cover their ears in mud from the wallow.
 
I'm not sure who had the most fun, the pigs running away or me chasing them with a handful of mud.  ;D

lol as i type i'm covered in mud. We have just had the vet out to take a blood sample and when we released her she went straight into the wallow, we stood chatting and drank a coffee, as she got out she shook and covered us all, theres gratitude for you!

.......and why is it they always wait until you're stood next to them to have a good shake after getting out of the wallow!
