Yep, Becky has done it again…she has
bought more pigs.
This time they are younger, smaller,
and a lot more vocal as in squealers. But, they are so cute.
Yesterday, Becky purchased four
Tamworth cross, 6 week old, piglets.
Now, her total equals six, future breeding , gilts. She brought them home in the back of her
pick-up. Glenn helped her unload them,
by hand, into her shed. Ear-splitting squealing
accompanied the process.
I have not been privy to pigs in my
past. I am amazed at how noisy they
are. They walk with a grunt, they stand
with a grunt, they follow each other around with a grunt, they eat with loud,
smacking and chewing and they drink with much slurping. I have not seen them sleeping yet.
Now, my job is to name the six. I can handle that task. Since all six have
English breeding, I thought they deserved proper English names. At the moment, no definite decisions have
been made. Any suggestions?
Hmmm…now where did I put that recipe
book…
