Hello everyone, hope you're all well today :D I haven't shown my boys for a while now so I thought I'd share some pigtures with you whilst I clean and re lino the hutches.

Firstly we have my little Wigner, who has come on leaps and bounds since coming to me as a very frightened and unloved little boy. He lets me hold him now, comes for foodies and loves a kiss before bedtime.
(forgive the temporary cage, his c&c grids should be here this week and then he'll have a 5ft paradise ready for him and hopefully soon a buddy)


'mmmm, nom nom'


'Oh you're taking pictures mummy, make sure you get my best side'

Continued.....
 
Next my big boy (or little should I say) Clive. He also wanted to show you a picture of his best friend Harold the hound.


'I'm not up to anything.... Honest'




Harold the hound, as promised by Clive!
 
And now my newest two, Kevin and Richie. They are still slightly nervous but trust me enough to come for food and have the occasional head rub.


Richie, being a big brave boy by venturing out of the pigloo...


'I'll make a break for it while she isn't looking, then eat all the hay I want!'


They have two bowls but always insist on eating from the same one, and then they like to knock it over and scatter pellets everywhere. Just for mummy -.-

There you go, my boys. Sorry for all the posts, it's too awkward to do them all at once (:*
 
Aww what gorgeous boys. I am so pleased to hear they are gaining confidence.
 
love the pigures.... :-)
 
He he. I love the hound! They look like a whole lot of mischeif!

You gotta love boars....

You're spot on there! They are full of personality, especially Clive. I can't help but adore him xD Boars are awesome, then again though I've only had a sow once and I really wasn't in the know like I am now.
 
Yeah I've only ever had boars and although they drive me nuts, they are so fun and affectionate I couldn't be without them.

Hehe, I understand! He is a very handsome boy and has a wonderful temperament. Even though the manager in p@h told me he was evil when I got him from the adoption centre.

That's awful.... what a thing to say! All piggies have their own character but it's usually the owners lack of care & understanding of the pet that's the problem not the little piggy. He looks like a proper sweetie in the photo and thank goodness you rescued him. :)

It definitely was his owner who was the problem, in 9 months he'd never been handled or even hand fed! I'm glad I rescued him, I doubt anyone else would have taken him considering the awful things they were saying.
