Hello

Well how can I put this delicately , hmm I know

This is the easiest way so just follow these instructions. Put a pink Volkswagen beetle filled with Gucci, Armani, DKNY, a load of lippy and other girlie stuff in the pen along with a Pirelli calender, an Aston Martin and a can of Lynx deodorant. You will soon discover which are the girls and which are the boys!!!!!!!

Seriously, the little boys will have a couple of protruberances around the curve of the bottom about an inch below the tail, these are it's testimonials and if you look underneath the pig in the middle you will see, just behind where the umbilical cord was attached, the piggies willy. The girls have a little bit sticking out just under the tail and about 2 or 3 millimetres down. It looks like a little pointy thing sticking out, this is the girlie bit, also the teats are a bit more obvious in the girls than they are in the boys.

Hope this is of some assistance.
Cheers
FG

Girls have a little 'bud' below the tail and the boys seem to have nothing at first glance! New born boys don't always show their little bits until a few days old.

If there is a 'bud' it's a girl if not a boy.  That is the easiest way I can tell at a glance!

Good lord did I really write that! Oh Um!  :pig:  :pig:  :pig:

When picking up some today, I said I wanted boys. OK so they are not newborns, but the lady says to her husband, as he's trying to catch then, that one there. He says "what, the one with the deep voice" ;D ;D

You never did tell us what you ended up with - boys or girls?
