Moving pigs can be fun sometimes

Last weekend I decided it was time to move the latest litter out to the woods. It’s handy for us having them in a shed near the house but in the end these are outdoor animals.

I’m sure I could sense a huge sigh of relief from Sissy when she realised what was happening.

Not many mothers would enjoy 6 weeks in a shed with 6 unruly piglets – however cute they may be!

They were all happy that be outside despite the windy weather and immediately had a good nose around.

In no time at all everyone was happily investigating their new home and discovering electric fencing for the first time.

Peace and quiet eventually descended. I had to go back to check a little later because it seemed so quiet but I needn’t have worried.

Although it was a first for the piglets, Sissy was obviously happy to be back outside and set to work churning up the ground.

Not the best preparation for having your picture taken…
