Now we are finally getting some warmer weather ( :sunshine: ) outdoor pigs know how to cool off, providing of course, that you have provided them with a nice wallow............ :thumbsup: . Here's a photo of one of my gilts enjoying a nice dip.

I got sent one last year of an OSB sow I'd sold, who decided to climb into the cast iron bath which was supposed to be a drinker in her field - they're so funny sometimes!
I've got a great video of a couple of sows getting a shower, but can't figure out how to post it  :-\
Hopefully lots more warm weather in store for them (and us) this year  ;)
