The father figure!

Har/Haribo.. Up to you lol.

Right we got har from a local pet store called Greens, he was lucky to be brought home..

He was in with Barney and Frank, my mum grabbed frank and i instantly fell in love with barney as you may know hehe.

We felt really bad for harry and couldn't not buy him, so wel got all 3 (this is how i ended up with 28!).

Not too sure why my mum called him harry to be honest but it suits him lol.

It wasn't long after he came home that he was becoming a father.

Harry and Suzie were love at first site, they still have supervised meetings...

As i mentioned in the suzie thread, she had 4 beautys!.

Only one boy, dillon, who moved in with harry the day we found dills chasing the girls around haha.

They got on well and dils settled in well.

Harry has had a pretty normal life, touch wood but he is a picture of health the only time he was a little bit down was when his brother frank sadly died. But picked up after a while and a new house mate moved in Pip.

Heres something that may shock you and most people don't beleive, he's Barney's brother ; ). Barney my big hariy albino texel... Strange i know. Might explain why big face came out so hairy, harry passed on the hairy gene.

Anyway not sure what else to say on this guy so heres some pics! I know you all just skip to the pics anyway haha!

I've been looking forward to pig of the day. :(|) And I read every word. :p Harry's a lovely boy. Great pics too. x
 
He's lovely but I would be very careful about allowing the boys and girls to meet each other, even under supervision accidents can happen and I'm sure you really don't want to add to your 28!

The more the merrier! :D :D

We'd never abandon them so it's all good.

My mum is planning on getting a big shed thing built in the garden so we can have some more :D

Such a handsome boy,your brood is so lovely! It must be hard but rewarding work though but who could complain with those big softies to greet you every morning :D :D Does your brood live indoors or out? :)

Haha yeah it is nice seeing them all hapyy and stuffing their faces.

These lot are outsiders :) Indoor in the winter though, you don't even want to know what our house looks like with all 20odd indoors!

aww such sweeties, I'd also love to get a couple more boy piggies when Arthur gets better it's nice to give an animal a loving home :)

I can imagine your house been rathe hectic with hay, squeeking and alot of fluff balls! :(|)
 
I can't believe how your group of boy’s lives together so happily with all the girls around, you're very lucky! I have to be so careful to make sure my father/son pair doesn’t even know my girls exist or they get all chattery and rumbly with each other.

Harry is beautiful and a very lucky boy to have been taken home by you! :))

Clarey, if you didn't allow them to breed , think of all the lovely rescue pigs you could offer homes to. Just my opinion!
 
AWWW - Harry is a beautiful boy!

I love the family picture very much; they are all so gorgeous! You should frame it! x)

Thanks for raising this, not taking into account all the stress and pain that can come with a pregnancy! Poor girls!
 
I get what your saying but the mums are soo happy after. Its life.

But as it's not allowed to be discussed ill shut up haha.

We've apopted quite a few pigs too :) x
 
I'm going to close this thread as it's effectively promoting the fact that you're breeding them. If you want to post pictures feel free to start another thread for them.

This isn't the place to give yourself a round of applause for breeding. PM me if you need further clarification on the rules.
