Our little Kunekune sow (that used to be Beewyched's  ) farrowed this morning 
7 altogether, but unfortunately 2 stillborn/laid on (not sure what happened as we weren't there but I might pm them before Greyshill come tomorrow to find out  ) but the other 5 are all doing really well.
Here's a quick photo of a ginger gilt (think she'll be staying put  and there's a cracking spotty gilt too (ditto with the staying put  )
Enjoy

Aww!  So cute! 

I'm a teensy bit jealous of the different colours, love my Lops but the piglets are a bit samey

Oh what little crackers - exactly the same colourways as the last Harriet/Tommy mating     such a shame about losing the 2 
I might just call across after Lanark on Friday    Pleeez Karen    can I, can I

Course you can mrs, you don't even have to ask  Kettle is always on 
We'll be over in Lanark on Friday at the sale anyway, so will most likely see you there - but you know what my wee ones are like  we might not be there for that long, so a visit for a natter and a piglet hugging sesh sounds good to me 

Gemma - I know what you mean about samey  I have Large Blacks too, and though they are adorable with their big floppy ears, it's not quite the same visual appeal as the spotty ones (hence why I've got my OSB too  very pretty piglets  )

Thanks Sally  How are your ones getting on ? Bet they're getting tasty looking big

Can I come and see them too? 

[bloomer]

looks like a party at hippys on friday :-)


if you keep the 2 little ones does that mean someone else has to go or is the herd getting even bigger?

I think your piglets are lovely - so much so I am off to find out more about the breed

[thestephens]

gorgeous!

[HappyHippy]

Can I come and see them too? 

Course you can   

Bloomer, the more the merrier  You know how chaotic it can get here - I'd never notice extra folk 
As to herd size  they're only little  and they don't eat much   
It might be a case of "oh these, no, I've had them for ages didn't you notice them"

The Kunekune society is good - here's a wee link to some info http://www.britishkunekunesociety.org.uk/articles/kunekunekeeping.aspx or if you're ever passing Lesmahagow way, feel free to get in touch and come and meet mine in person.

Thanks Alison - looking forward to meeting yours at the Smallholder show (and you too obviously  )

Thanks for that Karen
Had a quick look and I have to say intrigued by the breed Will do some proper follow up over the next couple of weeks.

You won't get away with that one Karen - trust me, I've tried it 

[ambriel]

You've got a great mix of colours there. They're lovely. Shame about the two that didn't make it.
