Name: Patches
Age: 1
Breed: Abyssinian
About Patches: Patches is the leader in my clan. He has a heart of gold. Hes always the first one to do everything. His favorite food is carrots. He's always escaping out of everything as he's secretly Houdini. There's never a stranger to him. He has more personality than most people!20161113_135111.webp

"whatcha doin hooman? "
Name: Jack
Age: 4
Breed: American
About Jack: Jack is definitely one of the smartest pigs I've had. She was the first to work out the treat ball and barely needed any help from me!
I feel like she was a very spoiled only pig-child in her previous home because she's usually likes hanging out by herself (except sometimes she tolerates Bo sleeping near her, Bo absolutely adores Jack) and she's been demanding of me from day one. :D
"More treats now hooman!" "Are those carrots? With the skin on? Nah its cool I'll just spit out the part i dont like "(true story)
She's got a big personality, everybody better watch out, because Jack's in town baby!

Name: Gwen (left) Trudie (right
Age: Gwen is 3 and Trudie is now 8 weeks old
Breed: Skinny pig and american smoothcoat
About Gwen and Trudie: Gwen is the matriarch of my little herd and 'mum' to her three younger cage mates. She is my heart pig and recently has been struggling a little in health. Trudie is one of my skinny pigs who I have had for two weeks. She is very brave, braver than the other two babies and followed Gwen around like a shadow. I love this picture of their bottoms as it sums up their relationship, they are certainly little and large!

Name: William
Age: 8 months
Breed: crossbreed, mainly ridgeback
About William: Hi I'm William :D I think I'm a wolf, look at me trying to howl.

I love most vegetables, especially curly kale, cucumber and coriander nom nom nomssssss.

I also like annoying my brother, peeing on my brother and sniffing my brothers bum - even though we are separated right now, I make sure to rumblestrut next to the divider so he knows who's boss!

I dislike baths, red cabbage (blechhhhh) and when Mum is late with the veggies.
 
Name: Brunel
Age: 3 (at the beginning of February)
Breed: There's some dalmation in there along with something else!

Brunel is my neutered rescue boar. He's in charge of a group of three girls, well he has two of them under control - Lilith has always been her own pig. He's a very special boy. He's not particularly vocal, but he has a very expressive face/posture and he lets us humans know exactly what he wants. He was noted at the vets at the time of his neuter op. for the filthly looks he was giving the operating team during his wait in the prep/recovery room.

He's not cuddly, although he enjoys a short grooming session; but he does like to sit on the sofa next to his humans and keep an eye on what's going on. He loves parsly when he can get it; and will pick French beans and beetroot first from the supper veggie pile. He loves paper bags, and takes great pleasure in emptying whatever I've put into them and then nesting in them until they fall apart.

IMG_2313.webp Hey William! I'm Phil. I got some new owners 5 days ago. I think you are very handsome, in fact, you look a bit like me. I know a good looking dude when I see one!

I'm about 8 months old and live with my flat mate Spike, he's an Aby. My new owners seem ok, we've got a two storey pad but they're only letting us use one floor at a time. They're trying hard and got the message we LOVE Kale. We get brocolli for breakfast with our nuggets. Tried some apple, carrot & cucumber. We'll see how it goes. They took us out to cuddle yesterday, it went quite well, then had a run around in a playpen for a bit before falling asleep in our tunnel. More cuddles today, and I found a great place to retreat to in my owners hoody. TTFN your pal Phil. Hope you think I'm handsome too!
 
Name: Rodney
Age: 4
Breed: crested
About Rodney: Rodney and his brother Benji came to me from a friend when they were three months old. He is the largest of my pigs, topping the scale at a massive 1800g. (Most of its fluff mum, honest!) As you can see, he likes to sit and watch TV (his favourite is X Factor) and he can sleep through anything!

Hello Phil! :D

I can't believe I have a doppleganger! We're both such handsome beasts. You look much cooler to hang out with than my brother Angus, he stinks and I don't like him!

IMG_0588.webp Name: Hope
Age: about 3 months
Breed: American
About: Hope is a New Guinea pig and has a sister. She lives in a nice big cage and is very happy. She is extremely jumpy because she is still being tamed, but I can tell she will become one of the cuddliest and loving guinea pigs I'll ever have.
 
About Peaches: Hi, my name is Peaches but i'm sometimes known as Peachymoo. I met my humans five years ago and have trained them well since then. They go to the magical white box and bring me my favourite Curly Kale whenever I squeak. I love my cagemates Archie and Flossie even if they do steal my favourite cuddle cup! I'm quite headstrong and know what I want but also very friendly and love cuddles (on my own terms of course)!
 
Name: Peaches
Age: Over 6 but like a true lady she'll never tell us her true age!
Breed: Abyssinian (we think)!

GORGEOUS girl, but I think she might be a ridgeback!
Here's my purebred aby, for an example. he's the orange and grey one with his butt to the camera. You can see he has swirly hair ;)

Thanks for the info! We always wondered what breed she was. From a google search she doesn't look like a classic ridgeback, maybe a ridgeback-cross instead?
Your guinea pig on the left has very similar markings!

This is Archie we adopted him when he was 6 months old he had had to have an eye removed after a fight, Archie is the most lovable little boy iv had he has the cheekiest personality and he loves standing up on his back legs to get in the hay rack or to explore anything.He has a cheeky hair line down this rump which gives the look of very pert cheeks. when he popcorn he makes us laugh as he does the most adorable head spasm and you can see just how excited he is.
Archie lives with 2 lady's Peaches and Flossie both over 6 years old but despite the age difference they get on like a house on fire and he shows the girls who's boss.

IMG_3101.webp This is nibbles, he thinks if he sits on top of the veggies in the bowl he will get them all! He no longer fits said bowl but is happy to let his manly bits hang out the back if it means more veggies for him!

So here are my two beautiful boys:
Name: Churcull
Age : 18 months
Breed : Peruvian
Churchill is not too big on being picked up but loves his cuddles in the cage or once he settles on my lap. He is the loudest squeeker ever but if there is any movement around him he'd be the first to run away.

My other baby is Puzzle
Name : Puzzle aka Mr P.
Age :26 months
Breed : not too sure ( he's the black and white one)

Puzze is definitely the head boar. He has to be first to investige anything and everything around him. Absolutely loves to snuggle in and sleep on mummy's lap. When he thinks enough is enough he'd headbutt mummy's hand so she knows he wants to go back on the floor

Yeah, she's probably a ridgeback cross, there aren't a lot of pure ridgebacks. But still stunning :)
 
Churcull is so beautiful! He's a Halloween pig XD I love the orange on all these piggies, it almost looks unnatural. Now when are we gonna start seeing some purple pigs? :P
