Hi everyone, I have had my 2 boys who are 9-10 weeks old for 4 days now and have never had piggies before so was wondering if the different colouring of them have particular names or is it literally black white n brown etc? probably a very silly question i know :red

here are my two babies: Rocky

Yeah, there are many 'technical' names for the different colours :D

Your boys are tort and white (gold/black/white tri colour), and lemon agouti & cream (the second one)

a lot of people call gold, either 'tan' or 'orange', or most often 'brown'...which aren't really colours...well, tan is, but it's a black pig with gold around it's eyes and on it's belly :)
 
lol, I thought there might be. thanks for your reply, its nice to know what their technical colours are. lol, yep we have been calling it brown, or ginger as my oh just said :o
