Two weeks ago the piggy family welcomed a new family member: Kylie 💓

Kylie was love at first sight, but when I first saw her pigture, she was already reserved for someone else. I was a little sad about it, but since it wasn't really planed to add another piggy to the group, it wasn't that bad.

When I noticed that the reservation has been canceled about two weeks later, I couldn't believe my eyes. So it wasn't planned, but it seemed to be a sign. :whistle:

This was the first pigture in her new home. Kylie was born in January.
Her colouring is quite fascinating. She is a California, but in the first pigtures she hardly showed any dark patches. In the second pigture a few weeks later, she was already much darker.
And now two weeks after moving in she is looking like this. :D

I knew that Californias change their colouring with age, but I didn't expect it to happen sooo quickly.
I love the California's colouring, but I also hoped that she would be easy to take pigtures off - not like my sweet black Vicky, who is a beautiful girl, but a nightmare to photograph.
I think the big guinea pig in the sky is having a good laugh at me. :roll::raz:

Kylie has adapted to life in my herd very quickly. She is a fast learner and quite confident. She started taking food out of my hand during the first week and free roaming on day 7.
She loves doing zoomies - and she is sooo fast! - and sleeping in the hammock.

Kylie wasn't really planed and she isn't looking exactely as I expected, but she makes my heart sing and she is much loved by everyone ... well, nearly everyone. ;) Vicky and Bonny were not amused, but they will get used to the new situation.

She's gorgeous! Californians and Himalayans are such gorgeous breeds! What a lovely little face she has! I know what you mean about photographing black pigs... my Tomie is a Harlequin with a black face and unless she's in sunlight she comes out looking like a black blob! LOL!
