Dixie - Rodney is gorgeous

The caption for that top picture should be:-

Watcha mean there's no Banana's today !

He is just like our first GOS Boar, Oscar, who we still have, and he is our favourite, but he's getting old.
Love the long almost curly coat - just like our Oscar  ;D ;D

P.S. love seeing GOS piglets - the best piglets by far  :love: :love: :pig:

He looks lovely!   

Im having the same problem with the mud and rain here fiona.  Unfortunately we are on London clay so no drainage whatsoever!  I let mine out in the morning and evening to feed in the barn so at least they food doesn't get lost in the mud.

Hoping to move them in the old goat pen the weekend but need to sort out the accomodation first.

Piglets look fab too

When my newest quail were 'delivered' the lady that brought them had the grand tour, I called Murphy the boar and out he came, chuckling away.  I said "isnt he he just lovely, the most handsome pig in all the world!" (and other such terms of endearment) and she looked at me like I was completely utterly barmy and ought to be sectioned!!
So its nice to hear some fellow pig lovers, complementing on good looking piggy chaps!

I bet if it'd been a chick or a kitten she'd have said "aah!"
