Bill & Ted
Forum Buddy
Just having a lazy afternoon full of cold! Thought I’d go through my pine chest that contains all my paper photos. It’s a long time ago now, feeling quite nostalgic and came across these of old photos of my son who is 38 in April and Bill and Ben. They where pet shop piggies! Both males and brothers, well that’s what we were told!
Ben became bigger and bigger and then the penny dropped! We had to obviously split them, so Ben came to live inside for a while
One morning I came down to find 6 new arrivals, sadly the biggest one was stillborn but all the others were fine.
Ben was a brilliant mother, we found good homes for them and kept one of the girls Lucy, who was the runt of the litter and quite small. Knowing now we should have kept a boy too for company for poor old Bill but hindsight is a great thing! We still had a pair of males and females to find homes for, so it never really worked out for Bill. They got to live in hutches facing each other but looking back it was probably a torment for Bill not to get to the ladies!
I am going to look for my very first piggie amongst all these years of photos, hope I find her, I will post if I do later!
Do feel free to post any of your previous piggies on this thread if you’d like to

We kept the first two (she must’ve already been pregnant when arrived, then Trevor obviously moved in quickly after, poor girl) but my mum returned the last babies to the pet shop 
Cried like a big baby, especially as two were mini-Trevors that were silver agoutis! Will have a look if I can find any pics!

but nearly 20yrs ago I suppose.
