Ellisr did print off the forms but had to wait until she got to work to get them as my printer is packed

yes pigs can goat milk or powdered goats milk, i have a micro pig (Percy) he is so cute he does get yogurts and things though but he seems to like that to make his pig pellets more sloppy and pig like:)

Calm down woman, breathe,Wasn't saying you hadn't, so long as Colliewoman has a reference from you the paper is irrelevant though like her i do like me paper system. We've all been saying for ages that this new electronic system wasn't going to work especially if people's printers weren't available so no worries so long as you get there in the end. I was just instructing what to do with it.
  Ellisr and    your move goes well.

The electronic system is set up for commercial farmers and not small farmers. You need a blinking degree just to get through it and then find out that animal health still haven't got your records right after 3 years of informing them the same thing over and over

Couldn't agree more. Why do they always have to have one size fits all mentality when it clearly doesn't, systems designed by civil servants and so called 'advisors' who wouldn't know a cow pat or pig turd if it was slapped in their faces!

Every time i do a movement to send pigs for slaughter i get a message to say we are not registered to keep pigs and to contact animal health. I phone animal health and we are definatly registered, they say its a glitch in the system

Don't go there!!!! You are being mischievous!! 

[jennapiggy]

micro pigs do exist they just arent as small as what people think but they are smaller than a normal sized pig ( if you pick the right one) and how are you not allowed to feed a pig yogurt?...

[Berkshire Boy]

As I said no such thing as a micro pig. They are pot belly or kune kune or what ever crosses. 

[colliewoman]

Anyone for popcorn?

ok before it degenerates jennapiggy, lots of people on here are passionate about piggies and the whole micro piggy argument is the closest thing to pouring petrol on a bonfire you can do on TAS...


it will cause a row, micro pigs are at best cross breeds of small species ut are often bred from runts etc in the hope of getting small pigs, there is plenty of evidence on the site of just how big some micro's have gotten!!!


as to the yoghurt, no animal produce can be fed to piggies its EU rules someone will be able to quote the details if necessary.
