Our friend had 2 piggies Terk (sow) and Tantor (neutered boar). Unfortunately Tantor passed away last week which left her with the dilemma of what was best for Terk. They had been living with her for 4 years but her landlord has said that she was not allowed to bring any further animals into the house. So she asked us if we would like to take her in to live with our herd. Of course we couldn't say no. She is 5 years old.

Awwwwww what a beautiful girl, she'll certainly be a happy piggie living with you and your family :)
 
AWWW - what a cutie! I am sure that she'll be happy about having piggy company. Hopefully, she'll settle in quickly!
 
That's a real shame about the landlord!

Anyway beautiful piggie, and I love your C&C setup! xx>>>
 
Thank you, she is really curious about the others and sits right up against the grids so she can be near them, so fingers crossed.
 
She's adorable, really nice when people take on older animals, I worry about people not wanting them as they are more likely to have problems and not have them for as long, but I find its even more rewarding sometimes, good on you :)
 
Sorry for not updating sooner. Sadly bonding has not gone very well at all, she chatters and lunges at any piggy we try and introuduce her to and her hackles are up yet she is fine through the grids. Will most likely be contacting a rescue to pair her up with a baby sow she can live with in her current set up. Is a shame. She is gorgeous though and has settled in really well.
