The sun is shining and it’s
hot and muggy here. Where better for a pig to be than flat out in the wallow? They
have truly changed from delightful piglets into pigs with the most disgusting
habits. Peeing in the wallow and then drinking from it is nothing unusual! They are around 4.5 months old now and eating 8
or 9 scoops of pig nuts morning and evening.
Meanwhile the lambs are munching
their way through the grass. So peaceful watching them wander round their
paddock. Less inquisitive now but they do come and say hello when I’m working
on the veg plot next to them. They’re starting to look like sheep now, rather
than lambs, which is good. Brownie is still small, always will be, but that’s
OK - he’s healthy.
Learnings:
Enjoy the tranquility of summer and take time to watch.
Always best to
stand back when the pigs climb out of the wallow, before they start to shake
the "mud" off in all directions.
